other expensive hobbies - that we can discuss on a family forum

Yep. The sickness of being an audiophile is chasing that last 1%, which is really crazy if you remove yourself from the equation. I finally got to where I wanted to be, and I'm happy to report I have not bought any audio equipment in over 5 years

My Art Audio Jota amps costs more than my 176 gallon tank I am not a big cable believer, but some people have cables worth more than my car.

 

notice I edited my post and called it "audiophool" haha... when folks start buying crystal rocks to place on their amplifier for better sound quality, well, they've gone too far! lol.

I've listened to some of the best systems in the world, and it's pretty crazy the stuff I've heard on good quality vinyl.... but when I got into making records instead of listening to them, it became a whole other ball of wax for me....

Technically speaking cables matter to a point, but there is really no justification to go beyond a heavy gauge oxygen free copper for speaker wire. It's when folks are spending hundreds if not thousands on a power cable that I begin to question their sanity.

 

RC boats, REAL BOAT, Car Audio

 

holy crap that is so sick! slipknot is bomb! tattooing would probably be a very difficult thing to do im guessing.

 

guitars get really expensive, id have to say more than reefing i just bought a wah wah peddle for 350 and recently just got an amp stack for over 1200 dollars. my guitars are also alot my last guitar i bought was 450 and thats the cheapest one ive gotten.

 

Ditto- it's like Everest- once there you can see everything but hear nothing like you once did.

I have over 60k in home audio gear- that I listen to maybe once a week now.

I am soon down sizing, going tube only and keeping my JBL L-7's, and my M&K subs- the rest goes.

But my brother collects gutairs- his latest was a PRS @ 6K- very nice, but I will stick with my 59' Melody Maker- old but true.

 

i do not know much about any speaker system besides my brother has massive speakers in his sooped up suburu, they costed over 6k.

 

im jking man looks like a ghetto car, pretty sweet rims do they have those hydraulic things that go up and down? that would be sick

 

they are original except paint and rims my dad left me all 3 the 69 is the same model jfk was shot in original paint with oem suicide doors i still have oem rims and hubcaps home no lift kits on all 3 u just have no idea what ur looking at kid8) and no hydraulics the 69 is on big rims

 

yeah i dont know **** about cars, maybe someday ill get over this laziness and try to fix something up. maybe way down the road haha
