oh Denon amp is a DRA-345R, it's the little child of the awesome DRA-425R. My stereo room is small, and it fills the room perfectly. That amp is going on my 20th year of usage!!!

I'm a strickly stereo guy, I'm no audiophile but I like standard quality. I'm buying Audioengine A5 in a couple of months, I really don't care for surround sound.
This is my current amp, an indestructable Denon from the end of the 1980's :

I recently finished The Road by Cormac McCarthy, as it seemed one of those books 'you should have read'. First of his I've tried, and I thought it was very good. Any other works of his in particular anyone can recommend? Now reading Faulkner's As I Lay Dying, which I read about a decade ago in school. It's even better than I remember... a true classic.
Blood Meridian. It's a transcendental western of apocalyptic nature.

hey guys do you know any good book about Classical Music (history)?
The lives of great composers by Schonberg
Norton Anthology of Western Music by Burkholder
The Rest is Noise by Alex Ross
thanks! have you read any of them?
Yeah man, The Rest is Noise is a masterpiece, but it's essays about the 20th century classical music. You'll end up understanding that everybody has copied everybody ha, and how important the transition from romantic to modernism was. Schonberg is an awesome introduction to every composers imaginable, but it's very opinionated and he hates Mahler lol. The other is a textbook, it's massive in two volumes with almost 1000 pages.

I love Christmas time, it gives me seat time for iRacing.com (still the #1 racing sim on the market, now going into it's 5th year, with more people on the service than ever!) :) :)

You can't be reading 5 books at the same time. At most, 2 should be sufficient.

He's just afraid of commitment and having kids. Nothing unusual.

Quatrevingt-Treize, Victor Hugo
A tale of two cities, Charles Dickens

Maudite is the best, but Trois-Pistoles is the one that goes for the KO, especially when you get them in a Growler (which is mostly 90% of the time here) !

I'm having fun playing 1vs1 by loading SMB3 and only playing the mini-game!

The prose in M&D is just beautiful, I was more attached to the words than Gravity's Rainbow. It's also an awesome historical novel in a way.

He's a guy, named Kim.
Did ya see his new upcoming book, it's sorta like the Mars Trilogy. Synopsis :
The year is 2312. Scientific and technological advances have opened gateways to an extraordinary future. Earth is no longer humanity's only home; new habitats have been created throughout the solar system on moons, planets, and in between. But in this year, 2312, a sequence of events will force humanity to confront its past, its present, and its future.

Never liked audiobooks unless they are of the humorous kind. But to each his own :)
