Will there be door prizes?  
Canare 4S11"G" now available!
@baylinor.  I hate breaking in wires of any kind.  It would be nice if the manufacturers would offer a burn-in service.  
Why Do Cables Matter?
Why spend money on a decent stereo if you won't buy decent cables?  Just buy a all in one system from Walmart.  Save money!  
Have a reflective Memorial day.
THis is not a political blog. Chill out and listen to some music.  
Has Your Hobby Changed?

Advice on how to liquidate system
You are getting good advice here.  Don't sell and don't give up.  I lost my hearing for 2 or 3 days at a very loud rock concert. It eventually came back with some tinnitus that, some days I can mentally block it out and other days I cannot.  No cu...
