I listened to my RTA12b's while working outside.
I then listened to them and the Pinnacles 50/50 later on inside for about 45 minutes.
Had a BLAST!Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them. -
Changed the lights I put in a couple of weeks ago. They were LED and gave off a slight hum. Couldn’t have that. Replaced them with old school fixtures. All good now.2 Channel

I bought it used and didn't pay anywhere near $11k. Plus I will sell the amp it replaced and get some of what I paid back.2 Channel

~ In search of accurate reproduction of music. Real sound is my reference and while perfection may not be attainable? If I chase it, I might just catch excellence. ~

You know that guy is now the director of music at a church down the road from me. ^

And Traffic too.
I play that one every once in a while. I just played it a few times in the last couple of months to test the sound quality of some speakers. I think my CD is recorded with the highs emphasized. It was brutal. But I've heard it a thousand times and mostly it sounded musical. Maybe FM subdues the highs?Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them. -

2 of their albums. Their not too hard to find in a row of albums either!
Maybe that's why I remember it sounding a whole lot nicer before.

There is about a 5% genetic difference between apes and men …but that difference is the difference between throwing your own poo when you are annoyed …and Einstein, Shakespeare and Miss January.

Testing out the ELAC Debut Reference DBR62 bookshelf speakers now. Very nice so far! Way better than the UB5's and UF5's I tried out in my last apartment (but that was on different gear and in a different listening environment/room).

Good to see others enjoying Elac also. Love mine.
