Touché.

"HELLO FRIEND HAS ANYONE TOLD YOU ABOUT THE WONDERS OF MAKING 98% OF YOUR RECORD COLLECTION SOUND LIKE CRAP AT THE COST OF MAKING 2% OF YOUR RECORD COLLECTION SOUND LIKE A HUNDRED ANGELS ARE SIMULTANEOUSLY ORGASMING IN YOUR EARS? NO? WELL WELCOME TO THE WONDROUS WORLD OF SHIBATA WAIT WHERE ARE YOU GOING"

Touché.

That was about the nerdiest joke I think I've ever made. Please dont tell my wife. I simply cannot provide her with fresh material for her to ridicule me for the next 15 years. Ha Ha.

When you get a new cartridge, VMP customer service is going to miss you.

VMP: "Huh...have you guys heard from that Mather guy lately?"

I have the Cisco and the “AB” early pressing. Both are very, very good but the Cisco wins in my book.

I will say, the gold MoFi CD is also extremely good and very close to the Cisco.

My wife still makes fun of me for wearing the white Wharfedale gloves when I unpacked my Lintons. As soon as she walked into the room I knew I had made a mistake I'd regret for the rest of my life.

Myself, @marshall and @Craigdinos chat group is called "The White Glove Crew" for this very reason. It happened to all of us.

Guess that means you guys haven't been seen trying to use a Zerostat-3. The white gloves with my Harbeths made me feel foolish (though of course I used them!). The anti-static gun makes me feel like I'm one step away from an aluminum foil skull cap!! Thankfully, my wife hasn't told me what she thinks about it. Pretty sure she just shook her head and walked away.

It’s actually also one of only two things that I’ve bought in this hobby that I actually hate. I evil eye it every time I open the junk drawer.

My wife laughed at me just because I used the little barber brush to knock off some little dust from the platter.

Speaker gloves would be used as blackmail during any future divorce.
