    do you fight those ugly mutts?

    Did you seriously just ask Ivan if he fights Pit bulls? Maybe you should go back to lurking.

    Apologies if that statement was taken as a blanket statement. Was not my intent.
    Don't be so quick to apologize... I don't think he was commenting on your post specifically! Seemed more like just tossing his two cents into the stream.

    Ah. Ok point taken. Thank You

    ...one thing I forgot about using an old CD player as a transport,
    they weren't that shock adsorbent. Just cheap plastic things.
    Still, some of these have fine DACs that have a bit of a cult of
    personality.

    I know right, but in addition to thinking all CDP's sound the same, he thinks an AVR sounds the same as a separate pre amp/power amp......FAIL

    Based on his logic I should sell the McIntosh 601’s and get a 1100 watt AVR. If that was true I sure would have a few bucks left over.

    And on that topic. I have a Yamaha RX-Z9. TOTL in the day. But big difference between the AVR and 2 channel. Even with the preamp in theater bypass and the AVR feeding the 601’s.

    Lets leave the dogs out of it
    That was an asinine canine remark made towards Pitt by David7544.

    Completely concur Ron. As the father to a sweet and loving pitbull, I had to hold my tongue on that comment. Dog fighting is something that should never be casually mentioned like that. Just terrible

    Dogs out. Check.
    Merry Christmas @txcoastal1.

    I'm thinking I'll try some CD player testing to see if
    I can detect any difference w/ sub $7000.00 players
    and players I have laying around. (double blind roping
    the Mrs. into it) Maybe these old ears
    don't need a four figure spinner anymore. Or it may
    be I would need to up rest of my system to reap any
    benefits.

    There was one very good post in this thread...
