What stereo(s) do you listen to? What do you want? - Page 13

But at some other times, Bose blows.

I think I'm getting confused. Please clarify.

IMHO even an analog source cannot save Bose.

Now I get it. "Blows" is worse than "sucks". I tought blows was like "rocks".
Sorry, I'm not a native english speaker.

Don't worry

I have always thought it was odd that musicians and audiophiles use vacuum cleaner terms to express themselves.

In my experience. I don't have access to a lot of the high-end stuff but I have an ear for sound and it's good enough to impress me. That said, if I had any kind of money I wouldn't want anyone to see a PlayStation in my set-up, as they're hideous.

To be fair, I don't think the Series II 901 speakers suck...granted there are much better speakers, but if someone gave me a set, I would probably not mind so much

Nice space heater

Sorry to say this, but that's probably one of the worst things they've made.

I picked up my LP12 yesterday, and my gosh is it heavy. After a brief bit of attaching it to my amp and playing a couple of albums, it is very good. It just has the Basik arm and cartridge, probably enough for me and my ears and my listening space - the primary limitation to realistically getting the 'best' out of this or any system. It came with a pair of the Linn Index speakers (original non biwire) which are supposedly the bargain basement Linn model but are nearly twice the size of my Wharfdales, oh, and a mass of Naim cables.
