Social Media seems to have replaced sitting in front of the stereo.  Bonding ain't what it used to be.

Also, the economy has changed. The middle-class is getting hammered. The cost of living is going up, wages are not. Discretionary spending has been re-calibrated. Millenials are paying upwards of 45% of their income on rent. Many are stashing any extra $$$ towards savings - they don’t trust that Social Security will be around for them.

@pbnaudio    I got a good laugh with your new banner. I complement your creativity. Still, the "Pink Floyd - Back Catalogue" was a winner, too. Some members here probably didn’t experience the late ’60’s - early ’70s’, as they were meant to be. Years of great music, great art and great . . . hmmmm . . . enjoyment!

It’s disappointing to see that buyers aren’t snapping up those Canary preamps. They compete with the best out there. Somebody will definitely get lucky if they appreciate high-end.

But, the banner doesn’t display destruction, it’s The Crown of Creation. :-)

Agreed! There are some twisted viewpoints out there. As Jim Morrison stated, ’People are Strange’
