Well, those are exactly the question

It was 7 years ago. I was living in downtown Boston for 16
years and enjoying the opportunity to step out of my apartment at 3AM and to
meet women who can afford plastic surgery. Then I felt that I was getting to
old to be in city and I move to s...

Many people I know don't really have an active, critical approach, they are just looking for entertainment when they read a book or watch a film, attend a music concert or a ballet.
I think that it all depends on what you are loo...

This morning we all:
Amy, kids, nanny, cats were watching Schleswig-Holstein
festival from 2000 where Gunter Wand was leading his North German Radio Symphony Orchestra
with Bruckner 8. The kind were playing
with my laser rangemeter, women wer...

The twins have a horrible night, probably the last stage of
teasing or perhaps we overplayed with them last night…. We took them from the cribs
to our bedroom and after an hour of fighting I left Amy with Abby and took Charlie/Kai
to sleep with me...

There is something horrible that happens
in my life: we got a dog. It is not that I hate dogs, I do not particularly
care about them and everything that I know about this life is how to be or how
to be-with Cats. Today I have a horrible alien life...

Yesterday was a truly wonderfully
day. I spent the whole day to play with playback, had a LOT of fun with it found
some unexpectedly good solutions that made me very excited.
The project with IB is
over, the result is surprisingly good. ...

Today I spent quite a number of hours listening the new playback.
As comfortable I am with playback response there are a few aspects that I do not
like.1)
I do not have enough gain and I would like the
damn thing to be slightly louder
2)...

This mooring I decided to play with my infinite baffle. The
mess with my analog crossover hat was calibrate for my old listening room gave
me bad IB taste. I bought used stinky Behringer DCX2496 Ultradrive Pro crossover
for $100 to find my new cro...

It is interesting lately to think about a new listening room
as a concept. We looked at a few good house that for this or that reason did
not work for us and one had a very good listening room, just a phenomenal location
in the house. A tall cathe...

A few years ago a friend of mine, an audio manufacturer in Europe, in response to my Macondo Mini-Me project told me that my Macondo Mini-Me speakers were crap but the name I come up with for my Pilot acoustic system was ingenious. Well, he was n...

As we are looking for our new home I am slowly simmering in
my mind the ideas about new midbass horns. It is not that I am short for ideas
but I am not sure that I will take my family on a bumpy and costly ride to build
new horns. One way or anoth...

Yesterday we with whole family were trying to reorganize our
CD collection. The lover did move the CD alphabetically but we did not check if
they know the alphabet. Anyhow, it was mess now and we decided to sort it out.
I think it take take a few ...

Yesterday I have a great listening time. I sent Amy with twins
to her parents. I put Thomas to sleep in his room and as he woke up I set him
to watch his Caillou for hours and I went to my listening room to have nice quality
time with my playback....

A local audio friend sent me a few days back a feedback
after visiting my new listening room:
“When we used to listen to music at your Woburn house I
could come home and still enjoy my playback. But listening to playback at the
Boxwood house ...

My Placete preamp was sitting in Idaho for update for a
long time, so there was not a lot of audio activity lately. Also, the last few
month there was a lot of things going on in my life that severely compromised my
audio rotation. It is summer an...

An amazing event took place during the flip between 2011 and
2012, the New Year nigh. It was my former suburb listening room, the one that
had the midbass horns built into the attic. At that time, I was running playback a lot and
I frequently was...

It has been a difficult time last 2 months in my family. We went
over job change and we fired a live-in nanny that made some logical thine with
kids difficult. The new nanny we found had to quit in 2 weeks due to her
medical condition, so it was a...
