So I first discovered Klaus back around 2006(ish). As a full-blooded German, I got very excited about Odyssey and the excellent reputation that Klaus had established. Here we are a decade later, and it really bothers me that I still haven't officially become a customer! I've been so close on several occasions to buying something from Klaus, but for whatever reason circumstances always result in a different outcome. Now here I am not really in the market for much of anything, but I still stop in seeing all the amazing gear you guys (and gals) own and enjoy, and the guilt is overwhelming! 

I feel like a disappointment to my German ancestry! 

Anyway, thanks for letting me vent...I'm confident that one of these days I'll finally join the club...until then, I'm going continue enjoying all of your discussions and pics about Odyssey gear.

Just buy something and have it shipped to me.  That way you bought something but won't have to look at it and feel guilty that you spent the money

Oh no no no, why should you have to feel guilty. I support the German fella all the way. I'm not German, but I love everything made by the German. My uncle, aunt & their lovely daughter live in Ludwigshafen. I love the place as well. Except for the Thorens made in Switzerland, everything else you see is Symphonic Line Ref 3, Groneberg Cables, & Odyssey complete system. Kismets Mono blocks is the top notch & most current up to date Symphonic Line capacitors and so forth. Kismets Liquids speakers. When it comes to the sound... well my apologies, I can't use words to describe how it sounds now.

haha, that's an idea...let me get back to you on that 


AlTRAN: That is a TRULY BEAUTIFUL system you have there...I was admiring your pics in another thread here yesterday...very nicely done!!

[AlTran]

Thanks for your compliment. I learned from the German... Poor me, the German made great products which I spent all my $ to purchase the German built system and no extra $ to get a dedicated room. I'm listening out of my garage.

Well I bet a oil change has never sounded so goooood
And just think most of us just have a old boom box or some garage sale stereo in our garages.

I am German and when Klaus says buy something from me I did. I am half his size.

[Phil A]

I am half his size.

So you're only the size of a school bus?

Klaus even makes me look small (if you look here at post number 53 - http://www.audiocircle.com/index.php?topic=135512.40 there is a pic of Klaus and the dinner crown from the last Capital Audiofest and there is one with his elbow around my shoulder). To make a long story short many years back (early 80s), I sold a turntable.  On a shelf back then, I had a fake magazine cover I believe I got at Disneyland, that was a bogus 'Wrestler of the Year' magazine pic with my shirt off and a big championship belt over my shoulder.  The guy buying the turntable look at it and told me he had a friend who was really into wrestling and wanted to know where I wrestled - he didn't believe the cover was just a joke - got a kick out of that.
