| Can anything be down about this? There must be an agenda! millercarbon,'A secret meeting was held on Jeckyl Island in which the titans of the music industry agreed to keep secret the details of how to make perfect digital.

| Harbeth 30.1 or 40.1 big_greg,Good write-up. Thanks.I think we could predict that there might be more subwoofer integration issues with the 40.2s. I would have imagined that they’d barely need one. So maybe there’s still room for improvements in the sub integration se... | |
