Any hi-fi jokes?

[Michael Jones]

My granddad gave me some sound advice on his deathbed. "It's worth spending money on good speakers," he told me.

[a poindexter]

have you been drinking by any chance mr jones?

good advice though:D

This may be a response to the thread lauding Cerwin Vegas. Mind you, they'd wake up ed's Grand dad, so you could hear for yourselves his final words of advice...

An oldie but a goodie...

 

What's the difference between a bull and an orchestra that doesn't care for its conductor ?

 

The bull has its horns up front and its asshole at the back, the orchestra has the horns at the back and the asshole up front.

Honey - this didn't cost as much as it looks !!

[KevinO]

1.No , it's not new ; I've had it for ages but I've just re-arranged the gear.

2. It' s just on demo , I'm not interested in buying it.

3. I didn't buy all those LP's , they just breed overnight like tribbles ( Jeez woman , don't you know your Star Trek?)

4. No , there is no such thing as too many records.

5. I WILL listen to that pile one day.

2 to row then move it to the Electricals section

7 to point out spelling/grammar errors in posts about changing light bulbs

5 to flame the spell checkers

3 to correct spelling/grammar flames

6 to row over whether it's "lightbulb" or "light bulb" ... another 6 to condemn those 6 as stupid

2 industry professionals to inform the group that the proper term is "lamp"

15 know-it-alls who claim they were in the industry, and that "light bulb" is perfectly correct

Paul Klipsch & Amar Bose are out taking a walk. They see each other from either side of the street. Klipsch cups his hands around his mouth, faces Bose and calls out "Hey, Bose, you still making those speakers". Bose turns away, puts his hands over his mouth and mumbles "Yep".

An audiophile is dating three women and wants to decide which to marry. He decides to give them a test. He gives each woman a present of $5,000 and watches to see what they do with the money.

 

The first thinks “mancave” and decides a new turntable would make a perfect gift. So she heads off and buys a Kuzma Stabi S. Fully specced, carbon steel, multi pivot points, stable non resonant platform – its the works. She tells him that she has done this so he can get more accurate reproduction from his collection because she loves him so much. The man was impressed.

 

The second goes shopping to buy speakers. She gets him a set of Whise Electrostats – second hand but fully run in. Its got fully balanced PAM subwoofer technology for a powerful bass experience. As she presents her gift, she tells him that she has spent all the money on him because she knows how much he loves the “sound” rather than the music and she loves him so much. Again, the man is impressed.

 

The third wants to really impress. She stumps up for a Bose Lifestyle System. Powerful Jewel Cube Speakers, video upscaling to 1080P and fantastic ADAPTiQ technology. She tells him that she wanted him to experience music with the emotional intensity as the love she felt for him. Obviously, the man was impressed.

 

The man thought for a long time about what each woman had done with the money, and.......then he married the one with the biggest boobs.

 

Men will be Men.
