CD,DVD,Vinal storage??
I have about 1000 CDs that I need a cabinet for. I have only a small condo and not much space. Does anybody know of anything that looks pretty decent with a high storage capacity? And, to make things worse, I am looking on the cheap.

Best female vocals on CD
Also, check out Aimee Mann ('til Tuesday) and Allison Moyet (Yaz/Yazoo). Don't rely on what you've heard on MTV or the radio to judge these two.

Just to follow up: My BK ST1400 Amp has been back for a week now. BK really did a great job with the repair. They only charged me $30 for new FETs, a new power supply and a new cage!!! My system sounds great. I have noticed that it plays much loud...
