| DSPeaker Anti-mode 8033 ii works wonders with my new sub Whart is 100% correct (as was I ;-). You can run two subs off the 8033, but both may receive only the same A + B (summed mono) signal, not separate left or right (stereo) ones. At $500, go for the 2.0 Dual Core. | |

| DSPeaker Anti-mode 8033 ii works wonders with my new sub For stereo subs, the Anti-Mode 2.0 Dual Core is necessary. There are a number of them available used right now for around $500. | |

| Recordings with incredible effects or imaging that we may not know about Absolutely, slaw! Once Ry (my favorite living guitarist) heard his first Water Lily recording (which prompted him to ask "Why don't my albums sound this good?"), he was determined to be recorded by Kavi Alexander, the label’s owner and recording e... | |
| Vinyl from Barnes & Noble From inside the record business:At the end of the original LP era (the late 80’s/early 90’s), retailers like Tower were allowed to return a certain percentage of their LP purchases (THEIR purchases, not those of their customers) to their distribut... | |

| Whats playing on your system today? Oh man, ozzy, Quicksilver's version of "Pride Of Man" (a Hamilton Camp song) is KILLER! They were good live too, one of the best SF bands of the late-60's. | |
