General audio topics that don't fit into specific categories.

When my daughter's doctor called me on the phone

and uttered the word "autistic" - he called because he said my wife preferred that he tell me instead of her. Life changing... the fact the same thing happened with our youngest son two years later was just as devastating. That was 15 years ago, and his thick Eastern European accent still resonates... Luckily, we've coped, and they are both incredible additions to the human race :)

In terms of audio gear that markets itself as at least mid-fi or above, some disappointing experiences that come to mind include an Adcom GTP-400 tuner/preamp (horrible at any price), Gershman Acoustics Avante Garde RX-20 speakers (very disappointing sound for the money IMO), and PS Audio speaker cables - thick, heavy, and opaque.
