Albert we have a friend that He can easily be manipalted,
so we play into his head,In term of audio He is ahead of
us,We like to pull jokes on him.I would also tell Him,
that one of our friend has the best ears in terms,of
audio.So I told Him to invite Him.But before we went to
His home my friend andI agree, that I will agree on His
evaluation.There we go. After 5 songs.He asked. What do
you think? My friend said the bass sound sterile, He
said.What? My friend look at me.I said yes.He started
talking, I wonder whats wrong, My friend said maybe the
cabling, spend time replacing cable, while my friend
and I are laughing whenever He turn his back on.After
that. 5 songs after. Hows the bass? We both agree, that
it improve,but my friend told Him, the midrange is no
longer measuring up with the bass,Whats wrong? We told
Himto remove the bass trap,in our surprise He did.Oh
albert we are having a ball, to make Him more confuse
we did not help him, so he will get tired.After removing
the bass trap,We told Him its now balance, except the vocal
are shaking, And He looks and I said Yes.We spend four
hours pulling this jokes,the next day, He called me If,He
need to upgrade, I told Him just put things back together.

Jayctoy: You and your buddy are the kind of guys i'd like to kill : )

I have a few customers that are easily rattled. Their buddies / co-workers know this and screw with them all the time. One of these customers used to come into my shop 2 - 3 times a week to have his equipment checked out because all of these "pranksters" kept telling him it wasn't working correctly. As it turns out, yes, you guessed it, it always worked just as it should and his buddies were pulling his leg. After about two to three months of this, ( and about 30 - 40 visits to my shop ), he finally caught on to what they were doing. Needless to say, i wanted to kill those other guys as i was the one that had to deal with this guy and all of his anxieties. I bet from their perspectives though, it was all quite funny : ) Sean

told Him, that the palpability sounds like disorted,

After the expo in NYC we decide to go to this supposedly excellent (zagat rated) chinese joint. We sit down and since there is seven or eight of us the waitress uses two hands to bring us our hot tea. We were so revved up over some speakers at the show that none of us noticed the waitress carried those cups of tea with her fingers inside the cups. I said "HEY YOU GOT YOUR FINGERS IN OUR TEA", she said "I know ,,,,,, I'm used to it!~)
Two audiophiles get drunk, as they walk out of the bar they see a dog licking himself. One says to the other "I wish I could do that" , the other says "go ahead I'm sure he doesn't bite."
