The problem with people leaving California is they will vote the same way they did there, and create another P00P Hole somewhere else, Calirado is headed down the same path...
Edit: Most people.

When you hit 10,000 posts, you have to celebrate.
Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them. -

Less political stuff, more making fun of me for not even making it a month.

Well you did say you were going to be a professional cheese cow milker once you move to Wisconsin... -
I see that you chose a neutral color for the KEFs. Will you be reviewing them here or elsewhere?

I have actually milked a cow before on a school field trip when I was a kid.I see that you chose a neutral color for the KEFs. Will you be reviewing them here or elsewhere?
Not sure yet! But yeah, maybe I should formally review them even though they've already been covered extensively. -
I have a 5-way speaker cable shootout review I need to type up and post here. Have all the notes from when I compared them back in Sep/Oct.
-
Did that every morning for years.
-
Every morning, huh? So that's what you call it? "Milking the cow"???

Having owned the 50 and 50w ( i felt the w powered version sounded better), I am really interested in your opinion of the Meta version.Musical Fidelity Tri-Vista 300, Audioquest Thunderbird Zero Speaker Cable, Tyler Highland H2, Audioquest Thunderbird Interconnect, Innuos Zen MK3 W4S recovery, Revolution Audio Labs USB & Ethernet, Border Patrol SE-I, Audioquest Niagara 5000 & Thunder, Cullen Crossover II PC's.

@Clipdat I am in the same boat as you. My wife rolls her eyes when new gear shows up to our house. There must be a 12 step program? 😬Primary: Doshi V3.0 pre and phonostage, Vandersteen M5-HPA, Vandersteen Quatro CT, AMG viella, Goldfinger Statement, AQ Niagara 5000, AQ IC and power cords, Mapleshade Samson V.5

Maybe a 16-month program like the one I've been on.
I think we're allowed to fall off the wagon once or twice per year. Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them. -
…The 12-step program to almost not being an audiophile.

Gonna work on getting them unboxed and hooked up tonight.
Will have to try not to compare them directly against my PMC twenty.22s with modded crossovers. I need to consciously realize that those are at a much different level and pricepoint.
By the way they are singing SO nicely these days on my Benchmark LA4 & AHB2 with the Vr3 anti-diffraction pads in place. Absolutely incredible. -
Love the PMC twenty.22s
Sweet speakers, effortlessly listenable. -
Well since I've joined CP I've been buying everything in sight! Many room's at Verb's house has it's own unique rig, even both garages. I'm outta control, so no advice given from Verb!
Still trying to get my act together and unload some stuff I'm not using, share the love.

Cool, I didn't know you'd heard them before. They're not too popular in the US. -
There’s a place in IL called Rich’s Record Emporium. They have PMC on display.

Looks like a fun shop to visit!

Good luck with the sabbatical, I’ve found it comes in waves. I would say I have slowed down as I’ve settled in and as I’ve found units that just sound superb.
The fact that I kept my main speakers for 4 straight years was an accomplishment. I had no audio from 2007 to 2014... sad times.Magico, JL, Emm, ARC Ref 10 line, ARC Ref 10 phono, VPI, Lyra, Boulder, AQ Wel, SRA Scuttle Rack, Bluesound -

Drew,
My last audio purchase was at the beginning of the year when I got the VR-2's back from my brother. -
Von Schweikert makes a hell of a speaker.
