altering the mind, an upgrade not to be dismissed.

i must say , after a few my system really does sound so much better.
so perhaps when in this state im just hearing what i cant hear otherwise.
so is good hi fi a state of mind as well as a good set up?

 

Allegedly one's ability to hear stereo imaging also improves dramatically under the influence of the dried leaves of a certain plant that can also be used to make hemp ropes....allegedy

i always found that a mix of lsd, amphetamines, crack and everclear improved the silences between notes and detail quite dramaticly - that was until the trial, now i don't touch the stuff.

If you want the truth... and nothing but the truth... Beryllium dust for thine dainty tooth.

 

But be very careful of those ears, too much volume could leave you in tears.

 

I'm in agreement with the original poster, the music somehow sounds better after 'two or three' cold beers

 

Not any more... with Accuphase forget that lore.

 

Good hifi is cheaper than drugs.

 

But the dealer markups are similar.

 

That'd be a great signature tagline!

To be fair Ian, some of that stuff you call music, is best enjoyed with recreational substanices, it *helps* you attempt to understand what isn't going on.

 

Particularly ones which sedate the auditory parts of the brain

My favorite one line post in a long time

Nice one.

 

Does this mean that there's a market for cryogenically treated, directional, gold-plated beer of serpentine origin?

 

I've had something similar...in Vietnam. There, they sell a kind of snake liquor...not quite sure how it's made but "stuff a snake into a jar, fill with strong alcohol, leave to settle for a bit" would seem to me to be about right. The bottles (well, jars really) look like something out of a 1950s biology lab - snakes in formaldehyde....and judging by the taste of this stuff it might well have been formaldehyde :chunder: .

It's apparently supposed to do all sorts of magical things to your body. All it did for me was turn my bowels to liquid for the next three days :bakeoff: ....and I only had a tiny shot glass of the stuff. First taste is OK, as throat burning as any other really strong alcohol but then you get this revolting aftertaste which no matter what you do, graces your palate for the next 2-3 days. Avoid.

Sounds like the cider i had at the last party i went to.
First mouthfull removed stomach lining, second hit the head within 30 seconds, great stuff

And it made motorhead on a portable sound amazing!

 

Best thread on ZG in ages

with more stuff like this Z G will Mushroom

 

this is obviously depends on your state of mine - here beer, vodka, etc help

additionla things are happen at night - cooler temp, quiter environment, "better" power supply, etc.

 

I saw Dreadzone on Mushrooms. Best gig I ever went to. The CD's were something of a disappointment.

Thanks for the tip on Vietnam Michael. I am led to believe formaldyhide is used in a number of brews in South East Asia. It's wierd to wake up after a full moon party with a chemical comedown simply from drinking.
