The worst thing that has ever happened to music is corporate produced pop music, giving an outlet to thousands of talentless hacks. I don't know which is worse- the fact that corporate pop is produced in the first place, or that millions and millions of human beings consume it.

Re: the Mp3 debate- given the option i'll always choose lossless, especially for home listening, but i've got thousands of 320 mp3s that I dj with in clubs- on a loud bass driven sound system I say you can't tell the difference whether i'm playing a .wav or a 320.

But mp3 has enabled the corporates to spread it far further and we end up with a generation who consume because they don't know any better :( Hopefully some will keep looking, for that something better. I still am !! . Mp3 is the only step backwards in music .

Many great Djs would disagree with you on the 320/ wav issue and I could rant on but the video says it far better than I could. :lol:

that's so true... you know, I have a nice hi-fi system at home, I love my CDs and I discover new sounds every time I play them. And every time a friend of mine comes home, and I offer "hey, sit on my couch, have a drink, and please, listen to any CD you like", they feel like "wow, this really is the experience of listening to music", and I mean every single person that came home. I don't know why only a few people care about audio quality.... anyways, they miss it...

me too, when I walk to work. With all the noise in the streets, mp3 320k goes very good. ps: you can have a decent audio system without spending tons of money, like buying vintage stuff (that was my only chance to get one).

Re: Distortion of Sound

^^ Definitely secondhand/vintage can be great. !! In fact my amp and my turntable are the only things I have bought new. My turntable would be called vintage now. :) I have learnt how to refoam etc speakers . So I have good speakers which didn't cost me much but sound great. Next job is a pair of Bose 901s . 18 drivers is a bit daunting though :lol:

Re: Distortion of Sound

nice and modern speakers those Bose´s! My expectations are: JBL 4425
