Anytime John and Jeff, it was INTERESTING, FUN, EDUCATIONAL!!! The man behind the pages, it was GREAT...I really enjoyed it, was actually HONORED you took the time and traveled here. Made my day, really. Carl E.
Last Friday, my neighbor Jeff Wong and I paid a visit to Carl Engebretsen, who posts to our forums and galleries as "DUP," to listen to his system. Carl, shown here in Jeff's photo on the right, chatting to me after the listening and measuring session, was a gracious host and I'd like to thank him for allowing us to invade his home.
Do those funky pants make my ass look big? Was I expecting a flood? I must learn to dress better for guests.... So much for sweat pants during a photo session. And get aload of the Christmas wreath still hanging...eeessshhhh. Man are we lazy or what, noooo, just early for the coming season. Yeah, riiiiiight.
Not me. I was listening to what JA was saying, yes I do listen really. My ears work. After being at HOB in Chicago, then a few months after I was there, and see the guy who does the sound at HOB gets his just rewards for doing a great PRO setup and excellent sound, I know what I hear, I know what is good, I know what is bad. Even Rev Horton Heat knows, check him out on my space, how he is fed up with poor club sound,. My ears WORK, I do not hear wires or wall outlets. But I do hear what is real. And JA proves it with science and measurements not, fiction writing with descriptions of vauge, meaningless banter. Several reviewers come to mind, mostly the ones who hear plastic demagnetizers, and the sound of a vibrating wall outlet. My ears work better than my fashion sense. I shoulda' wore my audio grade clothes.
