Not as if either of you are doing anything useful with your audio equipment or musical passion, are you? Neither of you DJ at a basic level, let alone play an instrument or produce music. All you do is listen to 4 FLAC albums in your bedroom, whilst caring more about the fucking technical wizzardry of producing the sound than actually appreciating the SOUND itself. That's not cool, that's just pointless E-Penis geekery. My processor has more gigahertz than yours; my HD has a higher rpm than yours; my barely-used audio equipment has a higher fidelity than yours... who the fuck cares, this sort of one-up competition is supposed to die out on the school playground.
Yeah, I have one of those. Need to replace the needle though.artofsurvival wrote:
All I can say on this:
My Technics give a better sound than most of the MP3's that I have on my computer. For the people that need to know Technics = Record Players!
Yeah, it was a VHS tape recorder. It's my fav. medium.artofsurvival wrote:

There's hardly any debate over the fact that analogue > digital sound. Digital uses smapling--not all the sound is there.
However, digital is popular because of its versatility and ease of use--imagine carrying 4000 songs with you on vinyl! That'd be hell.
In fact, little anecdote: I'm the audio tech guy at my school, I run the coffeehouses. The first one this year we were digital, which was great as it was metal (needs a lot of editing to be audible). This one, we used a 1980s vintage tape recorder. It was so awsm. The sound is beautiful!! (sigh)"
So true
I agree totally, digital is so useful as a storage media, but as the old age debate go's Analogue is better then Digital! I don't know, I could bore people with so much information, believe me I could!
Each to there own in my opnion, I prefer analouge due to my experience using it, whilst working in studios, nightclubs and doing testing. But the majority of music that I listen to these days, simply on the basis of ease of use is digital. One thing that I will mention is the use of tape players, as you mentioned before the sound is awesome, even better was the use in the early eighties of VHS and Betamax players as a main recording device, still to this day I use an old VHS player to record masters too as the quality is awesome.

a) 1980s Koss or Klipsch, or something like that (you have to make sure you try before you buy though)
b) Bose 161s. http://www.bose.ca/controller?url=/shop … /index.jsp
c) Klipsch RB-10s http://www.klipsch.com/products/details/rb-10.aspx These are the best you're going to get with your budget.
c) Yamaha TSS-15 (these are supposedly quite good) http://www.yamahamusic.com.au/products/ … SS-15W.asp The Yamaha shop in Scarborough should have them. Don't know about TO proper.
Obviously supposing that you have an amp and cables (wanted a good set of speakers)
Oh. lol. Well, nothing good under 200. I can do under 300.Winston_Churchill wrote:
