Last night I unexpectedly found myself 30 miles in the opposite direction of my intended destination, with no idea of where I was.
Am I the only one who gets sucked into the movies playing on the backs of peoples' headrests in SUVs and minivans ahead of me at traffic lights, and has to follow just to see how it ends?

H9"Appreciation of audio is a completely subjective human experience. Measurements can provide a measure of insight, but are no substitute for human judgment. Why are we looking to reduce a subjective experience to objective criteria anyway? The subtleties of music and audio reproduction are for those who appreciate it. Differentiation by numbers is for those who do not".--Nelson Pass Pass Labs XA25 | EE Avant Pre | EE Mini Max Supreme DAC | MIT Shotgun S1 | Pangea AC14SE MKII | Legend L600 | BlueSound Node 3 - Tubes add soul! -
I have actually seen that before....with kids in the backseat to boot.
Tom~ 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. ~ -
I guess a honk if you like **** sticker would be appropriate- Not Tom ::::::: Any system can play Diana Krall. Only the best can play Limp Bizkit.

I need to add that to the list of things I've never done and most likely never will.

A thirty mile detour is like the airline pilot looked up and said "thanks" when the flight attendant brought them a cookie. Whoops, we're over Idaho!Thank goodness you are not an airline pilot.
