    Default North -v- South (ears)

    I tend to find the southern listener likes soft music whilst the Northern prefers more straight forward no nonsense presentations....
    I can whistle with my fingers, especially if I have a whistle.

    I think the posts on AOS are becoming more confrontational. What is needed is a massive fight so everyone can get it out of there systems

    I get enough confrontation on the Harbeth and AVI forums thanks very much - both forum owners taking totally fixed and utterly narrow positions/views and unwilling to consider a different point of view under any circumstances.

    I listen to anything and everything and refuse to conform to a musical steretype
    Tear down these walls; Cut the ties that held me
    Crying out at the top of my voice; Tell me now if you can hear me

    ...and I'm listening to Alt-J. There are other times when I'm listening to Black Sabbath.

    I don't mind being a southern softie, though

    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
