I've Discovered Something

I've got these crappy logitec speakers, everything distorts on them, doesn't matter if it's my music or The Beatles, then I went into the soundcard mode and enhancement sections, did the room correction test, added the boost bass and loudness equalization. 
 
Guess what no more distortion, does this mean my masters arn't that bad at all and we just have to calibrate our crappy speakers with windows crappy sound software??

    I've discovered that every fred that makes it down to the Coffee House gets distorted too.   Which brings me to my next big question:  Should I have four eggs or six with my becan tomorrow morning?

    If those masters sound good now when they didn't before, you're probably OK.  If the masters are for you own listening pleasure, you're good.  I think I'd still try to give them a serious listen on a good system in an acoustically treated room if you're planning to sell the music or use it for demos.  

    Should auld acquaintance be forgot--hey, who the hell are you guys?

    Do you have so much becan that you need six eggs or do you have so much becan that you only have room to eat four eggs?  In either case--it's the kind of problem I'd like to have.  ...mmmmmmmmm.
