| They lost my amp Maybe UPS should consider a name change to Occasionally Ontime Parcel Service.OOPS for short. | |
| Latest Steve Winwood - Excellent Winwood was here last weekend opening for Tom Petty.The promoters sure got that backwards. | |
| 2K-3K Cartridge for SME10/BAT VK-P10SE superpak Zyx Airy 3 and for a bit more money/performance van den Hul Frog.Both offer incredible speed and detail; the Frog is a bit more refined than the Airy 3. |
