Post Subject: Sorry you had trouble logging in to the BlogPosted by Mike on: 11/9/2006
We would, of course, love to have you post over there at any time. I had to add the registration requirement because we were getting around 10 spams per day on the blog - and, yeah, we know it is a pain in the butt compared to how easy it used to be.

I was going to say something about 'over stimulating' myself, but...

But seriously - both Neli and I both still retain some of the enthusiam for all-things-audio that we first had when we were younglings - and sometimes that is 'looking at the products' whether it be technology or design or sheer presense - and sometimes that is looking at the sound, whether it be audiophile approved attributes or not - and sometimes that is looking at the impact things have on people, Enjoyability, Emotional impact, Truth or Realism (and suspension of disbelief) or altered state of minds (which we call Magic for lack of a better term).

We like so few things as it is now, I would hate for us to get even pickier... but I see it happening anyway over time. I do not necessarily see this as a good thing, Romy.

As far as the Continuum running at the wrong speed (presumably resulting in tonal anomalies), they were probably just blaming it on the Wavacs :-) But seriously, there are so many things that can go wrong with a hastely setup system - people are usually just glad to get something like 33 1/4 (unless you tell me it was more like 40 rpm :-)

OK, this is my first post... be nice :-)
Mike
