| Strange thing happened ... Good to know, thanks! | |
| Stereo Times list of the " 2020 MOST WANTED COMPONENTS" I WANT a pair of the Townsend speaker support stands and have them on my wish list for 2021. The Koetsu is too heavy for my tone arm, but sure is pretty. The rest I don't want. | |
| Late Night Jazz Ballads by Coltrane is hard to beat for late-night, "wine"-down listening. (The new release from QRP is amazing) But also try Coltrane’s Crescent, one of my personal favorites and Love Letter by Jimmy Heath. | |

| Does Anyone Think CD is Better Than Vinyl/Analog? Try as I may, I still cannot come up with a legitimate reason for beating a dead horse yet again and yet again. | |
| What did you make for Christmas? Pork chops and applesauce.Then I sat down for my annual listening session of Miles Davis' Bitches Brew. I've done this in consecutive years since the late '70's in the hope that one day I will actually like it. This year I got through all four sid... | |
