What kind of sound system rig do you have?

s_k · 12-02-2010, 08:47 PM

That's what I was thinking of.
Altough I must admit that my Philips FC 870 is pretty decent

.
I have a Denon in the living room because it has a little drawer you put the cassette in.
Shouldn't listen with my eyes, but it sounds very nice

.

I use cassettes as a cult thing. I like all the different shapes they come in, I like to make mixed tapes. So I must admit, I don't take them too serious. But they can sound better than a CD, so obviously better than an MD. Analog tape FTW

I have just bought a remastered (1990) 180gramme record of Queen 1, when I first put it on my son thought it was CD as it was so quiet. Gotta love good vinyl.

and queen doesn't even sound that good, usually.
the MFSL recordings are a bit better, but they're very, very expensive

Batty · 12-15-2010, 03:05 PM

I paid $32 for the 180g

s_k · 12-15-2010, 06:04 PM

Well I don't like queen, but apart from that I think that 32 dollars is more than I ever gave for a record. Bit too much for me

Most expensive one must have been the recent reissue of Miles Davis' "Kind of Blue" on 2x180G blue vinyl. Sounds incredible. Even though it's blue.

I have 1 of 500 copies of Marillion's marbles, check out prices on ebay if you want a shock, the CD limited edition that I have is selling for over $400

s_k · 12-15-2010, 06:16 PM

i don't... like marillion either

Batty · 12-15-2010, 07:12 PM

It would indeed be a sad world if we all liked the same thing.

I just have a basic stereo system, you know...two speakers, and an added sub woofer to add some bass. It's nothing too special, but it's nice to have when I want to listen to my DVD's and music really house shakingly loud.
