Emerald Physics speakers
Check their website. They are doing in-home demos by some of their customers in certain cities, I guess on a kickback deal of some sort. Very nice way to do business.I keep hearing great things about them as well, just not sure if it's a totally f...

DIY power cord / cords - really good
Thanks Bruce, I'll see if I can whip a stitch! I do have the old corner tunes from michael green I still have up, they blend in so well I forget they're there. But I do like to experiment, so I'll let you know if I have a breakthrough.Chas 
DIY power cord / cords - really good
