Coping in an Age of Uncertainty
There's now just me and my Cornish Rex, Leeza, and she appears to be even less concerned about picture quality than I am!Jim 
Coping in an Age of Uncertainty
Ears--- I think it's great that video has that importance to you. I suppose I'm very lucky in that the few movies I watch are quite satisfactory, to me at least, on my 19" TV set! In all honesty, I see very, very few movies advertised in which I h... 
SACD vs ANALOG
Rcprince---- I manage to learn something new everyday, in spite of myself! Case in point:Tonight I picked up the lengthy booklet that accompanied the WLA "Nature's Realm" hybrid and actually read the blurb (by none other than the Robert E. Greene ...
