High End Validation


Nice story (to me anyway)…

Had a pizza delivered today before the Lakers game. Latino guy in his late twenties. He’s been working at the pizza store for several years.

The stereo was playing. A solo acoustic piano piece on Paradise Radio.com.

“Nice music”, he smiled.

“Thanks”, I said also smiling.

“Is that a real piano…or the radio...?”, he asked.

“It’s the stereo”, I told him. Validation, I thought to myself.

“I like Beethoven”, he grinned.

The sun was setting on a beautiful Southern California evening.

I try to keep a low profile with my system. Covetousness can be an ugly thing. In the end everyone loses.
I worry about thievery whenever someone like the pest control guy goes through the house. Is he casing the joint? Dan
With all the time and funds you have invested in your rig, I'm sure it can smack of realism. On an unrelated note, the Lakers took the first step towards a possible repeat. I'm happy about that.
Had kinda/sorta the same thing happen yesterday! The (really cute) property manager at the complex I'm living at knocked on my door to drop off a passcard I requested. The system was on (Santa Fe & the Fat City Horns!) and she sez; "great music!, who is that?" at which point I invite her in and we shared a glass of iced tea. Of course the conversation went to the size of my rig and how deep it went!!;) SCORE!!! Next time I break out the wine and Marvin! The chase is on!!
So the size of our stereos is an extension of our... egos?
