    Default Warning: Never Read Your Old Posts

    I just read through a few of my old posts and it was painful. The posts were only a few months old and the contradictions are astounding.

    It's like I change my opinion on stuff every three months, especially after experiencing it. For instance, a few months ago I thought "full range" speakers were sufficient for bass reproduction. Now I have a 180 degree viewpoint on the subject. Geez -- what an idiot.

    Then there are the "this component is better than sex" posts, and three months later it's up for sale in the Flea Market.:p

    And worst of all, there are grammatical mistakes and other errors that I didn't realize before. Ugh!!


    Don't do it. You've been warned.

    I read my early posts before.

    Personally, I think I was better off then, than I am today.

    Soooooooooooooo, what you are really trying to say is that you want to go back to two-channel. :p :D

    Don't hide it. Come out of the closet. You can do it!!!

    I've always wanted to rebuild my two-channel system. I made that clear last fall when I dismantled it. The HT and 2-channel system will still share the front speakers (along with a pair of DIY subs). Im waiting on an Emotiva XPA-2 2-channel amp to arrive. It should be here sometime next month.
