The Best of Fellow Audiophiles.

Hello all.. Audiophiles, lovers of music are a very rare breed in that they go out of their way to help other audiophiles, always give their experiences and opinions of audio gear they have owned or listened to. Have been known to lend a cable or piece of equipment for a fellow audiophile to check out and test in their system. Always have a cold beer, scotch or beverage of choice readily available during listening sessions. Will drive 100's of kilometers to deliver a piece of equipment. Can talk for hours and hours on the nuances, pros and cons of audio equipment  Have been known to  forgo their (?) payment to get that on sale, special piece of equipment that gets their system to the next level.  What a great hobby, passion and lifelong love affair.

Take a bow Audiophiles.

Albert Porter has opened his house to strangers just about every Tuesday night. I try to go every week and begin the process of learning how to listen, both to his system and his words of wisdom

I just sold a pair of Alon II's to a fellow member here a couple of days ago. 

He drove to NY from Virginia to complete the sale. 

Brutal trip, intrepid fellow, musician, and a pleasure to meet. We auditioned the new Jaco Pastorious release through the Alons on my system and found it to be okay. 

In brief, this was not unlike fellow members I've bought from or sold to here - we like music first, equipment second, and it's reassuring to know that there's still an extraordinary league of gentlemen sharing this two-channel madness. 

Cheers!
