I love it all...rocker Rocker, I'm with you - I love it all. It's funny, I have a vinyl collection of maybe 300 or so albums and a stereo system that was pretty high end back in the late '70s. It still sounds very good to me today, (though I presently do need a new phono cartridge/stylus). However, I find myself almost never listening to it any more. I've amassed a fairly large collection of CDs, and find that since I got my AJB, I almost never listen to them anymore either. Now I'm working on a huge mp3 collection - already more songs of more types of music then I ever had before! I REALLY love my AJB and the convenience of having almost any song I want available at the press of a button - anywhere, anytime. It's simply incredible to me that this little thing, and these compressed mp3 files, sound as good as they do! For more "serious" listening I'll unplug my Porta Pros and plug in my Etymotic ER-6's. They require a little more "commitment" on my part. I love the isolation they provide, so that I can really focus on the music without any "distractions" (like my wife calling me for dinner. She hates those things.) :-) Tom _______________________________________________ http://cool.haxx.se/mailman/listinfo/rockbox Received on 2004-06-21 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
