What kind of speakers/sound system do you have? How do you listen to music? At home/on headphones/in the car?
I recently downgraded to a simple logitech setup which is a necessary but temporary evil. I'm in the process of deciding what kind of system to buy next - hopefully one that will last 20+ years without dying or becoming irrelevant. Suggestions?
I also just ordered this little guy ( http://www.amazon.com/Soundmatters-foxLv....06/ref=lh_ni_t_ ), which I'm very excited about. Portable quality audio.
Just interested in hearing what you guys use.

I also use Logitech. They get the job done and the bass even on it's lowest setting is enough to make the neighbors complain.
I rock a pair of $40 Sennheisers; everytime I see them Bose sound-canceling ear fuckers I do the Wayne's World thing: "It will be mine. Oh yes. It will be mine."

For in my room (to hook up my ipod, record player and sometimes computer to) I have a Samsung soundbar, with a big subwoofer. I got it open box on boxing day for $250.. It's virtual surround sound for a TV, but it makes my music sound so pretty, and LOUD. http://www.samsung.com/us/video/home-theater/HW-C450/XAA?
For at work I have some lovely skull candy earbuds, and my car has a stock stereo, which is just a radio. I use a fm transmitter to play my music in my car.
For obvious reasons, my room is my favourite place to listen to music.

I sometimes listen to music through an old Crosley record player I have. But mostly I'll either listen to them directly through my computer speakers or wirelessly stream music to my yamaha receiver and hear them through a pair of Klipsch WF-34 floor standing speakers I bought a couple years ago...

I have an old Panasonic turntable that gets pretty good sound, but the autoreturn for the stylus is busted. It is also a placeholder for something much nicer. When I grow up.

Drew- That little thing looks so cool!
Stamper- I really like those speakers. Also, I have a Crosley record player too, but the built in speakers are just awful, that's why I bought the sound bar. I got the player for Christmas, and it's not the one I would have bought, but it sounds good if you attach speakers.

I've had my eye on one of those soundbars for a while, too, but mostly for simple tv surround sound. I want some nice floor speakers for my music, though the logitechs are pretty good for right now.

This sucker was my christmas gift from my girlfriend this year. It has an ipod dock, so when I listen at home this does the trick. It's an entry level surround system, but it has suited our needs and actually sounds really nice.
I currently rock over the ear skull candy's but I very desperately want the Bose headphones HG was mentioning. I was actually going to buy them next weekend, but instead I'm getting my first tattoo!

Hey, you're the one that started that thread in the first place. You should be happy I pooped it for you.
Yes I realize what the word filter is going to do. You know what I mean.
