Tubegroover,Hi, no problem, we are just 2 people with different outlooks and opinion. You and bdp24  see things one way and I another. Fox news may be an issue for you all but not for me. Conversely you two may relate more to CNN/MsNBC etc, not fo...

Tubegroover, I as well thought the attempted analogy of minors exploited and forced into sex trafficking compared to financially able adults engaging in perfectly legal retail purchasing/commerce was a poor one.Since the advent of the Johnson era ...

Teajay, That's a very interesting comparison and I look forward to reading your listening impressions of DHT SET amps vs the known high bar performance of the LTA ZOTL amps. What a wonderfully versatile speaker to allow this type of scrutiny of fi...
