Thanks for the welcome Candy Liquor;)....Up until a year ago I was quite happy listening to equipment I owned that was purchased in the 70's. A Yamaha CA-1000, Infinity Quantums, and a Pioneer Pl-51a turntable. I also luckily ended up with a friend's HPM-200s in 1990 because he was too lazy to repair the surrounds and "they were too big". So for basically a 30 year span that was it, until last year, a spied a pair of perfectly fine Sansui SP1500s in someones trash and the realization that people are getting rid of their equipment like it was contaminated with plague. Long story short I've been blessed with equipment I never dreamed I'd be able to own, amoungst that equipment SDA's 10b's 7b's and a RTA 8t. I love the sound of the 10's and I'd like to get the SDA's to play to their full ability,if possible. So I appreciate it if I can pick members brains for info and I will say my two bits if I can be helpful. Thanks for your site, Chris:D

    Yes it is and I feel that there is another person at this forum that should be under such scrutiny for multiple screen names. I'll leave it at that.

    Gotta agree with you Jstas... Way too many newbies coming out of the woodwork and doing their best to demonstrate someone's point. Someone should do a little IP checking and wipe out the infestation...
    There is no genuine justice in any scheme of feeding and coddling the loafer whose only ponderable energies are devoted wholly to reproduction. Nine-tenths of the rights he bellows for are really privileges and he does nothing to deserve them. We not only acquired a vast population of morons, we have inculcated all morons, old or young, with the doctrine that the decent and industrious people of the country are bound to support them for all time.-Menkin

    Ha, you guys give "that person" way too much credit. Said person certainly has the time, but I doubt he could "create" so many persona's.

    So many "personas" are not being created. They all seem to be the same kind of person, just different names. They also bare a striking resemblance to the personality quirks of a single person.

    Never underestimate, it'll bite you in the butt later on. Maybe I'm wrong, maybe I'm right. The real issue is why has the situation perpetuated to the point where this should even be a question raised? And no, I'm not blaming moderators or anything. I'm blaming the person(s) involved in the shenanigans.

    I agree there are some shenanigans going on. Why no one is on top of it is beyond me. They are on top of "other" shenanigans.

    Not laying blame on the mods either, just a very strange week here on CP

    Guys - don't beat the guy up. My name is Chris Anderson. I'm not sure who the other guy is. Have the mods prove it but don't start trashing the guy just because his name is Chris. Have I ever mentioned any of the equipment he talked about? Plus even I'm not dumb enough to start a new screen name then sign the post "Chris" :):) Peace

    Nobody is beating anyone up. The world doesn't revolve around you either. You are not the person I was thinking of and I honestly didn't even realize the new dude's name was Chris too. I was just stating what alot of people are thinking about quite a few "new" people who have popped up supporting a singular person's arguments.

    If you settle yourself down and this new guy here sticks around too then awesome, good on both of you. But I'll tell you, your first post is associating you with one of the forum's least liked participants right now doesn't do much to endear you to others right now. Hopefully, all will get past that, including the new guys and give the beenefit of the doubt.

    For now, just know that something is rotten in Denmark and it ain't the cheese.

    It could be that someone is playing tricks on you but it's not me.

    More likely someone is trying to play a trick on the mods as another last ditch attempt to get me banned. Someone might be impersonating me and my ip address so that it looks like I have created multiple personas which I have not.

    I don't know how easy that would be but it's certainly something for the mods to look into.

    WTF!!!???. At first I thought this was a type of newbie initiation....This my 3rd post ever on this site and consider myself a guest in someones house. I'll even take my shoes off. I have no agenda whatsoever. My screen name is a surfing expression meaning the waves are good with excellent conditions.

    Yer cool - someone thought you were me (same names - Chris) and went off on you. Don't worry about it - you're OK. I'm kinda in the dog house around here these days. Chris :):)

    BTW, your initial post was a response to Candyliquer - who also seems to be in the doghouse around here. So some folks made some erroneous connections. Chris

    By the way, you forgot the "persona" that signed your last post - the guy named "Moron" LOL - I'm just kidding really, really I am. But it did sorta look like it was signed that way. Chris :):)
