Speaker Fetish


I don't know if I am alone or not but I like speakers. I have a pair and am not looking to replace them but I find myself drawn to looking into new speakers all of the time. I don't know if I should go to a shrink or is this normal? Any coments? DO I NEED HELP?????

Well avguy you are a true gentlemen. So if you won't kiss and tell. What are you buying next. On a serious note, if we can find one. It seems you are pleased with your current system. What is it? And don't tell me Bose. With a name like avguygeorge, you must have some good empty boxes laying around. So let the cat out of the bag, what ya got.
I myself am a Martin Logan guy, thou I shouldn't be cause there customer service sucks. But I love the sound, what's a guy to do.

To back thread a bit. The reason I let my better half feel like she has some say in what I purchase for my ever growing system is cause this shit is expensive and at least she knows why she doesn't have a new suv in the driveway, because it's sitting in the living room. I kinda figured I'm not the only one that has that problem. So I thought I'd help my fellow audio nuts. I figure I get her into it and she feels its partial hers. So of to the store for a new component, hell its only money and I can't take it with me. Pete

PS: Glad to see you and the tireguy are coming to some kind of agreement with this damn doll shit. Get over it, I'll send the boxes(cause I have many) and I'll even pay postage.
Ok guys, you want to get serious huh?? Sorry,don't know how.I was hoping to find info on that CTD dummy modification. Some one said Sig. Freud said there is no such thing as "merely" a joke. Ok on to audio. Now we find our resident Psychologist is a worst case offender. I have boxes in 3 dif. rooms.Stacked to the celing in one. I have2 boxes that are 30 years old.Yup still have the product that came in them. According to some of, you the boxes may be worth more than what came in them.At least sutible for a home, away from home.

You go alot of extra stuff, you need to hook Jayboard up. And if your giving out x-mas presents early, you can throw me anything you don't want. Prefer amp and x-over for the 2 subs I want to add for music.

PS: Looks like you've look out the window quite a few times
waiting for the UPS........
Pcc.... Wrong about the "look out the window" / Don't have a window that faces the street.As an apt dweller my window overlooks the dumpsters.I paid extra for that;and it's well worth it. As far as the UPS driver goes;I have this remote activated tire strip, the cops use, for the UPS guy.
I am gald to find I am not alone. I need a larger house for all the old equipment I never sell. Has anyone else tried to get a huge pair of Electostatic speakers in to a closet? The walls will never look the same..lol. My wife is just as bad as me, She says why sell it you may need it some day. Then theres the boxes! Hell I just may need them someday. The garage is full of equipment boxes. Thank GOD I am not into like Cars or Boats.. Oh well such is life in front of the speakers
