Audio Kharma website

Then there are the audio websites where entire threads are about another audio website...talk about a waste of bandwidth. Better to a growing site than a fading one.

BTW, AK has all kinds of folk from the dumpster diver to the hobbyists with six figure systems. Seems it's better to be a bit inclusive than altogether exclusive. Just my .02.

My cardiologist says no Bacon fests for me.

That sight just annoys me! Plus I don't like the way they put down better gear. They are in such denial.

I think we should rename Audio Kharma. I don't see anything over there that is Kharma like.

Pick which name you like best.

Audio Sleazeball
Audio Cheapskate
Audio Bums
Audio Derelicts
Audio Losers
Audio Penney Pinchers
Audio Illiterates
Audio Dumpster divers
Audio Swine

If you have some better names I would like to hear them.

I'm beginning to think there is more to the story here. You sure some dude's silver faced Sony receiver didn't blow your system away and you're just trying to get even?
Or some bacon sandwich eating dude stole your lunch money in school?
C'mon, what gives? What's the real deal? You can't have that much angst simply because some guys like chaep stereo gear.

One of my friends has a $300 (or less) system I helped her put together.
Marantz 2070 found for $30. JBL speakers from the 60's, $40 the pair, we used duct tape to 'repair/replace' the rotted surrounds.. still going fine 7 years later, duct tape and all. (cut the tape into smaller trapezoid shapes. worked in the 'roll' just fine)
NAD CD player, $10 Goodwill
My old casstte player, $70 Aiwa 990.
Dual turntable she had, but new cart Ortofon OM30 $100.
So say her TT cost her (used) $25 years ago...
The total $280.
Plays fine. I go there and listen and no cringing either.
