Well its been a while, months, since I last posted. sorry if this runs on, its kinda not well thought out.

I have a little mid-fi or low-fi or somewhere fi system depending on who you talk too.

I bought a Behringer DEQ2496, its not perfect but what component is?

to my ears it is

1)equal or better then the cambridge azur 340c when used as a dac with my pioneer DVD player. In every way i can think of. when the DEQ is off

2)the future of all things budget

If you want a overview of my system circa last year check out the Gallery.

Ah. Smog's A River Ain't Too Much To Love is one of my very favorite albums, and certainly an album that meets my still-developing hi-fi requirements. It sounds great. I fell in love with it right around the time I was discovering hi-fi at home, which makes it, for me, extra-special.

So, I am anxiously awaiting Woke On A Whaleheart, Bill Callahan's first album released under his own name, and his first complete work since A River.

I am currently looking into purchasing a pair of floorstanding speakers. I have been looking into associaed reviews, which are indicating that ProAc Studio 140 are a great product.
Sure but what about MOnitor Audio RS 8 or RS 6?
I have seen some of the forum comments about the Monitor Audio RS6 & RS8 and they too seem well respected.

Naturally the associated costs are quite a bit different.
Though I would love to have a acoustically treated listening environment, that's not to be... at the moment. More a typical living room.

So a little black kid goes into a hardware store, see's a garden implement/tool. Asks what is that thing over there? Pointing at the garden tool, the store guy says, Oh, that's a HOE...the little kid looks puzzled...Responds, that ain't no Hoe, my sister's a hoe and she don't look nutin' like that! I said a bad thing? Imus, should be fired for no ratings and stroke victim speech pattern, and generally unlistenable. Jackie the Jokeman siad it first years ago.
