    [quote name='bremen' timestamp='1357564507' post='1924475'] I think Paul was wondering whether folk are less bothered about sound quality nowadays. [/quote] Yeah this was more my point. Wasn't trying to get into a Digital Vs. Analogue debate as such because I use MP3s as much as the next man when I'm out and about. And they're good for what they are. It's no doubt down to nostalgia more than anything else but it just seems to me that people had an appreciation and respect for sound quality that is becoming rare nowadays. Paul

    [quote name='lettsguitars' timestamp='1357559422' post='1924346'] Whats the point of a nice stereo when you shove digital audio through it anyway? cd's also sound awful to my ears. Stone cold! [/quote] True. I suppose I should have mentioned formats as well. I was going with the assumption that a proper Hi-Fi would be used with either CDs or vinyl. Don't agree about CDs sounding terrible although vinyl (which I'm assuming is your medium of choice) definitely sounds better. Paul

    This came up in discussion the other day when one of my friends argued that my Hi-Fi took up too much space in my room. He claimed that all you need is a "Micro Hi-Fi" which you can pick up for pennies. I can remember even when I was a kid that every house would have (or seemed to have, IME) a big, proper Hi-Fi with seperates for CD, cassette and vinyl as well as a decent amp and speakers. Now though people seem to just have an All-in-one stereo with tiny speakers that sound pretty terrible. I could probably count the people I know with a proper Hi-Fi on both my hands. I'm no audiophile but I love having one place I can listen to music as it should sound; good. So I suppose my question is: Has the quality of sound become less important when buying a new stereo than size/cost etc? Cheers, Paul

    [quote name='charic' timestamp='1355225383' post='1895493'] Are these the same size as the standard Jazz 3's? If they are I might buy a few packs! (Read: About 10...) [/quote] Yeah, they're just the same size. Best picks I've used anyway! Cheers, Paul

    +1 for the Dunlop Jazz III picks. Used to use the tortex ones as well myself (purple ones, not sure of the thickness) and they were good but once I tried the Max Grip Jazz IIIs, I never looked back. It feels like you have so much more control and I haven't had one slip out of my hand yet.

    Yeah, it's definitely putting people off which is unfortunate. Hopefully though, someone who knows what they are doing will see it and get a bargain. Failing that, I'll have someone look at it and see if it's gonna be worth my while getting it fixed. Cheers, Paul
