Probably his mom can explain.
Are you asking us to S T O P ?
.@ suri : ha! ha! Now you have to reach to this level to truly make a sense of that. Google-boy can't help u! :lol:
Maybe stevie can't either? Yes, I did what I said bcoz I have a real problem that I see coming up. And using the dressing-gown was a way to relieve the mental agony!! :lol:
After taking delivery of the prestigious B&W 800D in Nov '09 and continuously burning-in with pink-noise on a 24hr basis now for several weeks, listening to them for 10 odd days, I find the speaker has great strengths BUT Doesn't have the soul-captivating feel which my 17 yr old Matrix 802 does. I've been going to-and-fro between the 800D & the earlier Matrix 802 and the older one is so much more better.
Hence - requested B&W UK to arrange for a matrix 801 series 2 (1987-1993) version that they've just dispatched. BTW- when I mentioned my observations to senior people at B&W, I expected them to slam the phone on me. But to my dismay, they were very patient & went on to comment "Oh Boy! So you too have joined that Club?"
I keep asking myself - I was all well settled and why the hell did I even get into all this fiasco .....
Hi,
My point here is to spend wisely and not to get lured by the attractions, liked I got lured by the xtreamer one
At least 4% of our per annum salary would not affect us a lot, especially young chaps! I used to run my life from paycheck to paycheck for a period of years, then when I started saving, I started really feeling confident and independent.
If we cannot spend anything, there is no point to be around here! Let us spend, but wisely!
Thank you Srikarkav sir for your advice, hope to get a lot from senior members around here!
Cheers!
You know what...the very reason why the Audiophile community is so limited is because its only the handful of us who spend beyond our means for audio and thats the reason these forums, those audio companies etc are all existing.
Otherwise with the numbers that we all make up, if we had that mindset to STOP or even HALT, the dealers would be no where:lol:.
OTOH, I know guys who do not upgrade for years, but they are extremely rare. They dont try "not to upgrade" its inbuilt within their mind. They are lucky
I agree that we have been caught up in a viscious loop where its very difficult to control our senses unless we simply cut off ourselves from any Audio related forum or discussion, do not visit showrooms or other audiophile's places or get too busy in our work schedule to do anything in audio.
Some very serious audiophile friends of mine are so busy in their work schedules that they do not turn on their system for weeks and sometimes month. Obviously they do not have the time to upgrade !!!
Another way that I have found to be very effective in controlling oneself is by buying high quality music...by high quality I mean your favourite music which are very well recorded and manufactured (XRCDs, Mofi, Japanese pressings etc). They will make you sit back and listen to music so much and so well that you would stop bothering about bettering your system. Your system will always call you to spend time listening rather than testing.
Hope this helps.

hyeah: I just ordered a optoma HD65 PJ, after lots of troubles, and will be shipping it through vpost! So, I know I can't be a member of this club for a while, coz' I have some more stuffs to buy along with the PJ.:yahoo::yahoo:hyeah:
Hi,
After serious consideration and the overwhelming response and attempts to make this club a spender's club,
So, I am currently resigning my post as the chairman of this club and let someone takeover this
Though we spend heavy and actually it hurts someone to see our bills,:sad:, but when we enter into our HT room and listen to our setup, the world is anew and afresh and looks beautiful:yahoo::yahoo:
So, I have decided to bulk my pocket by working hard rather than stop spending, but with this buy, I am completing my 7.1 HT setup (a pair of bookshelves and a woofer are rrequired only for enhancement), which has been my dream since my college days.
Cheers!
