All music is the same. It is just presented in a different way. All music is an outlet for someone to tell their story. Whether rap, rock,country, or blues someone has something to say and no one should hate on either. Hating always comes from the inability to understand something. You shouldnt degrade something just because you cant relate to it.

Country people do seem to know their audio...

I was doin the video at a local city 4th july concert and Eagle Audio was doin the sound equipment part. the guy running this huge 100 channel sound board had maybe 4 teeth and they were all rotten from chewing Tamaco. he had a cowboy hat on also....he was constantly keeping the levels steady.sounded great!

another sq cd I like is the new John Mayer cd. my favs on the cd is track 1.2.4.and 8

so would it be safe to say that an Fi Q is useless for someone who listens to 99% rap?

I dont see any reason why it would be useless, it'd probably sound a little better than ur average BB or CC subs, but it depends entirly on the song.

Just remember what you're defending.
Also, if you ever made Tacos at home with real hamburger, cheese, fresh vegetables, spices, etc you might give the Taco Bell remark a second thought. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

No. I know what I am saying and I know what I'm defending; I'm defending creativity and individuality.

Also, about taco bell... I am a HUGE mexican food fan. I refuse to eat at Taco Bell and have not eaten there in over a year. I know what real home cooked burritos taste like and I know they blow Taco Bell's shit out of the water. Am I saying Taco Bell isn't really making food? No. What I'm saying is that I prefer a different type of food. What some of you are saying is that anybody who eats at Taco Bell has no taste in food at all. I have a friend who eats with me at this homestyle mexican place and he also eats Taco Bell. He knows good food but he also enjoys Taco Bell.

I cook more than I eat out and the majority of the time, I'm making something mexican. I also refuse to use hamburger meat for my burritos and also stay away from cheese; real burritos don't need cheese to taste great as it is all in the meat and how it's prepared.

if a woofer can accurately reproduce musical bass, it will have no problem with computer generated farts and burps..

What im saying is that maybe all that that person know to talk about because of the environment they grew up in. I listen to pre2000 rap also but that is only because that was my time period. I dont like the new stuff but that is this generations stuff. I cant knock that. I dont knock rock just because I dont understand it. Most of the time I dont know what they are saying especially metal.

Uh guys, Im pretty sure Punk was joking about the no taste for rap lovers thing, I know that's how I read it. Some of you guys seem a bit defensive about your choice of music... hmmmmm

I was about to say, Neil's comment was pretty tongue-in-cheek...but it's CA.com, do you expect subtle humor to go over well? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

I do think there's a lot of people out there that listen to rap that have very skewed priorities...like spending $3k on a massive substage yet run stock speakers up front. The same kind of people that buy room-filling HDTV's yet use HTIB's for the audio. I'll never understand it, but to each their own I guess //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
