I occasionally toy with the idea of buying one BUT it sems like an awful lot to pay for something that I might not know how to use. I even have trouble deciding what to set the treble and bass controls at. Maybe I shouldn't be posting in this group. If you (plural) would rather keep the net.audio discussions away from tone-deaf neophytes, fine. "Now, We're Never Alone" Another Scratch In The Vinyl from Robert DeBenedictis P.S. Is tone-deafness something you can get over with practice, like bad dancing? Or, is it more like poor eyesight? Is being tone- deaf something to be ashamed of? Should I let my friends know? I mean, it's embarassing to sit and listen to people compare music and never have anything to say. Is there help for people like me? ?-) How common is tone-deafness?
