I like the new picture very much. Better than the old one. Because I feel it's the right one, and it's so cute.

Sorry, life keeps getting in my way. That and your beloved time zone doesn't help.

So here is a review on the three speaker sets I tried:
1) Logitech Z130 Price: 24.99
You get what you pay for. Sound is thin and tinny. No bass to speak of, mids are weak. Highs are good and vocals sound okay at low levels.
Rating: 4/10
2) Bose Companion 2 Price: 99.99
I will say it took me nearly 2 Weeks to decide I did not like them. Too much internal processing, more noticeable on some songs than others, at times you can hear the vocals nearly drop out completely. Sound decent with moderate levels and no distortion, but music should be heard the way the musicians intended and not the engineers at Bose.
Rating: 6/10
3) Klipsch ProMedia BT Price: 179.99
Very clear, precise, and powerful delivery on the music. No alteration of sound like with the Bose. You get a Subwoofer, and if you are like me and don't like a real lot of bass the subwoofer has a volume control.
Rating: 9/10
Notes:
I have a lot of older music so I tried setting the sampling rate of my audio card to CD quality. The next day I noticed something was wrong. I have it set now at 24 bit 48 KHz I think without checking, but this definitely makes a difference. I don't know if there would be a negative effect with too high a setting, haven't tried it. Okay that's good, gave me something to do for a couple minutes.

Thanks. But I've been a big fan of headphones since I can remember.

I haven't used headphones for decades, but in retrospect I guess the biggest complaint would be the cord. I can remember when I did use them I would get an adapter cord of maybe ten feet or so. That way I could get comfortable without having to be right on top of the source. Of course nowadays with all the wireless technology that may not be much of an issue.

We've come a long way me and you. It's not over yet.
I have been thinking more lately about finishing what we started, but of course that's not all.

I've tried wireless headphones, but I found out that actually that cord annoy me much less than dead battery somewhere half way

Come to think of it all my audio devices have Headphone Outputs so you are well provided for at the present, they really do care.
Aside from the battery, you probably get better sound with corded Headphones too.
