Chris A Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 We need a place to gather all the best quotes from the forum. I saw one today that I had to read twice to believe it. I think the term "ability to instantaneous teleport to anyone's listening room" applies: Quote "I can tell what another person's system sounds like, for example, yours, from reading their list of components, ( or viewing their amplifiers...if tube ). I then make my own judgement as to where they are in audio. I assume most audio people hear OK." Feel free to add your favorite quotes that you stumble across. It certainly makes for more interesting reading when things are a bit slow around here... Chris 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 I did something like this years ago with a quote of the year thread. It's a good idea, and maybe your format will be more successful. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJkizak Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 I made this quote in 1976---"Digital will never make it, it's too slow." JJK 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thaddeus Smith Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 Good stuff - I do this to a certain degree with every one of my posts. I'll keep my eyes peeled for tidbits which need to be curated into this thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edgar Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 "Many people like to think that there are deep mysteries in the world whose understanding is beyond the reach of science and logic. But to imagine that there is so much beyond the reach of science in a little home stereo system is really going a bit far." Sorry, I failed to note the author. Please identify yourself.

Chris A Posted November 12, 2020 Author Share Posted November 12, 2020 We're getting more all-time hits this week... Quote "A vinyl record played back on a high quality rig will almost always sound better than a hi rez digital file." [This of course begs the question: "what does he actually listen to?"] Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris A Posted November 12, 2020 Author Share Posted November 12, 2020 And another hit: Quote ...as for tube amps, well "many music lovers know that a good quality tube amp will be superior to solid state", or something like that. Full disclosure: I own and use a First Watt F3 amplifier that heats the listening room in the wintertime...and summertime, too. 🥵 I'm looking for a good class D alternative so our Samoyed can join us in the listening room...
