Best speakers for 3 cord rock and roll
Buy yourself an old juke box, load it up with a bunch of 45s. Nah, it's not the least bit "audiophile", hell it ain't even stereo, but there's something about listing to old Rock & Roll, and Honky-Tonk on a juke box that no stereo system can c... 
CD's no longer supported ?
Perhaps Saki, you could give us the name of the "national tv program , that has a large following with nothing to gain from this" to back your statement up? From what I heard, CDs are going to be around for while, simply because there is "no one a... 
We have a Winner -- Major "MINI" monitors

Affordable Power Cords

Blu-Ray Sony for Redbook CD
Lindisfarne, and anyone else that's interestd in Blu-Ray might want to hold off on getting a player for awhile and see how things "shake out"? Remember SACD? Sony certainly "pulled the plug" on that, and it looks like they may do the same thing to...
