Deang Posted May 1, 2005 Share Posted May 1, 2005 Craig, cut Kev some slack will ya. He was playing off my earlier post -- he didn't mean anything by it. Tom, that's a weak point. Unusual for you, you must be losing your touch. He builds and sells what he does because he believes it sounds good. Only an idiot builds and sells what he thinks sounds like crap.

Now I've gone and ordered a restored ST-70, and my appreciation of hi-fi is in jeopardy. Fine time to let that one out of the bag! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DizRotus Posted May 1, 2005 Share Posted May 1, 2005 Got to run. I think I hear my mom calling me. I say think because I can barely hear her. She must be using that SET bull horn again.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /> But, before I leave, let it be known that I use and appreciate both SET and PP. I use the SET to appreciate hi-fi and the PP to heat my house.* * None of the foregoing is true, for a moment I mistakenly assumed that I was Mitch Albom and that the truth didnt matter.

laurenc319 Posted May 1, 2005 Share Posted May 1, 2005 hi, Let's see if we can hit 200 (posts in this thread), it should be real intersting. I reread Kev's posts and find nothing offensive in them. BTW who is AC/DC, is he good to listen to ? Does he play the sax ? Another BTW, " Charazz, Tralphaz and Beluga. " define these word please, I'm dying to know what they mean and if I can use them in public. Ok, I'm heading back to my pull-push, opps, I mean push-pull amp. Oh boy, sometimes I get so mixed up. I think the SET people got it eaiser, its only one word. All this is in jest ...except the first and second sentences of this post. Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I even promise to hold Craig and Paul at bay while the more serious audiophiles set up for the demonstration. Those of us lacking sophistication in the "audio arts" will sit down, shut up, and try not to make funny faces -- as the more astute show how to fill a room with realistic live levels using less than a watt. ---------------- Please give me a nudge to wake me up when the science demonstration is over. You may be kidding about the sophistication thing, but it's actually appropriate for a certain subset of the cult. The "Only someone with golden ears can truly savor the sublimity of this most delicate presentation of the inner truth of pure music" subset. Then they'll put on Jacintha.

sfellini Posted May 1, 2005 Share Posted May 1, 2005 I've come to this thread way too late and it looks like it's winding down, but I'm curious about people's listening history in arguments on SET on this forum. Who here have been long-time Klipsch owners and have tried SET and prefer it - vs - those who are SET owners who have become Klipsch owners because of its high efficiency, and prefer that combination?

Parrot Posted May 1, 2005 Share Posted May 1, 2005 Good questions, Steve. Another observation is that most, not all, of the biggest proponents of the cheap-chippy amps are SET fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBrennan Posted May 1, 2005 Share Posted May 1, 2005 Craig---You and your syncophants can be as smart-alecky as you like.

TBrennan Posted May 1, 2005 Share Posted May 1, 2005 minn-male (and why the emphasis on male, very telling), if you want to be funny or insulting your overreliance on "therapy" and "meds" and such is getting old and is hardly original in any case. Come up with something witty or droll if you can, which I doubt. I imagine that in person you're quite the dullard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
