Best $500 System?
I like the powered monitors and CD with variable output. KISS it. Active Quad 11l/12l (best as nearfield, but great all-round), Tannoy Revolution, etc.I'm impressed with the JBL 4208 (and 4206) as an inexpensive pair of used speakers (not active) ...

Faceplate & Handles for Audio Research Classic 60
I have a new pair of black handles. They came with a CL60 I bought in 1998 or so. They were all wrapped in bubble wrap, but somehow I found one floating around the bedroom sans wrap. Not sure where the other is, but if you are interested in one or...

Fun Little Project for improving Dynamics
The manufacturers of the Power Bracelet finally had to admit there is no science behind their claim of "natural power". If you don't need no "stinkin' science" you can probably get a really good deal on these right now. They might even help the so... 
Sarode Mastreo Ali Akbar Passes away
I saw him at the Performing Arts Center in El Cajon. I believe that was his 80th birthday. The performance was incredible. A loss to all lovers of music.

Led Zeppelin-newly remastered
I haven't heard the Page remasters. All my studio CDs are from the 80s, and the Mothership is far, far better sounding with lots more detail, air, bigger soundstage, etc. The drums and bass are a real treat. Drums on Since I've Been Loving You are...
