So when I am feeling like reference level listening, I can’t resist playing Celine - The Power of Love
Anyone else care to share any guilty pleasure listening? Or feel free to revoke my man card at will.

    Celine Dion singing "O' Holy Night". When the orchestra kicks in, the floor rumbles! :p:DB)
    Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

    Lol, I don't think your punishment will be too harsh. Twenty pushups ought to cover it. Honor system. Besides, there's got to be some distinction between a guilty pleasure and downright embarrassing. I know a guy who liked to crank Sailing by Christopher Cross on his SDAs. He doesn't post here anymore, but I still won't out him... :p

    I’m making up for it by blasting Stranglehold now

    I think "Stranglehold" has been played the loudest on my SDA-SRS2's.

    I had some DJ/Band speakers that I played louder maybe, but not with the stranglehold song.

    No problem there. Unless you're not talking Uncle Ted.

    I love the opening two tracks of The Beatles “Love” soundtrack from the Vegas show... I turn it up to a level just below hearing the drivers pop, turn off the lights and close my eyes.

    If the Beatles ever performed live again, I can only imagine their show may have opened like this, and those big SDA’s make it feel like I got front row seats.

    Is that while you are still thinking of Celine?
