I think there is some Doris Day in the house somewhere. I'll have to dig it out. I wish we had some Peggy Lee. I found some more Andy Williams the last time I opened my parents boxes. I'm still not finished washing my own LPs. 
Power Cord Recommendation
Thanks boxer12. I was looking for a simple replacement cord,as the one that came with my integrated is somewhat loose on the female end and is only 18 G. I did find this one after I posted. I think it is as good as I'm going to find without going ... 
Floorstanding towers
