| Jazz "samplers" Would any of you be willing to make a recording on to cassette for me? I would supply the cassette. (Prefer those with a top Nakamichi deck.) | |
| Magnum Dynalab MD-208 I have to second Truman's comment's about one box, you have less clutter, less cables, etc. I just bought the Mark Levinson intergrated amp and really like having one box versus two! ...not to mention one less cable. There are more and more compan... | |
