Why Your Dad's 30-Year-Old Stereo Sounds Better Than Yours
asto21 writes "Cnet's Steve Guttenberg sheds light on this interesting development that over the years, actual sound quality became a secondary selling point since most people started buying their equipment either online or from big box retailers. People started caring more about the number of connections and wireless interfaces and wattage of systems. As a result, there was less money in R&D budgets to spend on advancements in sound."
Sorry not true.
*My* 30 year old stereo sounds better than yours.
Ignorance killed the cat. Curiosity was framed.
Christ...
That's not a post.. it's a damn homework assignment!
It was taught to respect it's elders, not like these young punk stereos you see walking around with their pants hanging off their butts. And, MY dad's stereo mowed the lawn every week without having to be told. Don't you know that builds character??
I swear to God...I swear to God! That is NOT how you treat your human!
Steve Guttenberg was amusing in the Police Academy movies (though not nearly as good as Leslie Nielsen), but why should I trust him for advice about audio gear?
...the future crusty old bastards are already drinking the Kool-Aid.
Wait a few more years and HDTV won't seem so impressive to you anymore, either.

Instead of a sound system, box contained a angry badger. Would not buy again.

That's what you think. This is exactly why I spent $500 on monster cables - my cheapo system sounds amazing now.
