persoanlity and speaker preference

hi doug, i am an independent logical type, with a curiosity about human behavior.

the only reason i am buying the magnepans is the problem with one of my quad 63s. i need a bckup speaker. i doubt i will be replacing it soon, as i generally prefer panels over cones, except for an occasional foray into the world of mini monitors, which i would place on top of my quads.

Mr T. Although I am not an introvert, I border on extrovert while not completely adhere to the definition. Liberal Republican is kind of right description as far as my cars and audio prefreneces go. Other than that I am an maximum democrate. :)

The funny thing, that I also think that there is a linkage between one's personality and the characteristics of the soundprint of his or her system. Warm friendly people typically like warm, inviting, smooth, rounded sound - and their system do so. Other friend of mine, a young disco-lover, strong, loud, funny guy with race car like drving habit- has a JBL-Levinson system with lots of bass and omph and with shrilling highes. etc. Studying one"s listening habits and it system sound indicates personality traits and other way round.

I guess I have A.D.D. because I have had Stats, Planars, cone and domes, and now have VMPS with cones AND Planars.
Wait......what were we talking about????????

Sure it's "just" a backup speaker today. Sounds innocent enough. Pretty soon you'll be sneaking to audio dealers after work for a quick fix. Meeting in back alleys for a hook-up. Hot tips from your audio broker on that latest tweak.
Before you know it you're getting admitted to the audiophile nervosa ward then released to AA (audio asylum) for weekly rehab meetings. You know what they say, once an audioholic, always an audioholic.
No 2 or 3-ways for me, it's single driver all the way babeeee.
