I'm interested in attracting a younger audience to high-end audio. But is this possible? Sometimes, I feel that bringing a younger crowd to our hobby should be no problem at all. Young people love music, love their iPods. So: Why not? (When I say "young people," I'm talking about college kids, kids who are out on there own, working, spending some of their own money, beginning to make their own decisions. I don't expect 15-year olds to be rocking the hi-fi.)

Hi. I need a Polk Audio AI-1 interconnect. Please contact me if you know of one I can purchase. Thanks.

Whether or not anyone's come up a current plan for Class A Ipod technology, downloads are the future of all audio and visual mediums. Why buy a disk when you can download everything? Just the same, I'd like to try out those Emm Labs CD players DUP talks about all the time. I haven't heard any of their stuff, but their website is pretty informative about their products, enough to make me desire an audition from one of their dealers. Supposedly, their high end DSD performance makes redbook CD's sound good.

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.
