| Harbeth 40 speakers Harbeth has a great reputation in the UK and a growing one in the US. One reason they don't sell quickly in the US is that, although many of us have heard of them, fewer of us have actually heard them. In "shootouts" with other similarly construct... | |
| Recomendation for speakers BEST for Piano? Well, it would seem that the choice of speakers alone is out of context with the rest of one's system. Yes, Quads can sound great. I've listened to them powered by Naim separates, and they are wonderful. I've also listened to them powered by a Ber... | |

| Michael Hedges. Fantastic CD......Aerial B..... The late great Michael Hedges.... I like "Aerial Boundaries" a lot, but actually prefer "Breakfast in the Field." | |
| Vecteur I-6.2 Integrated ? If you liked some aspects of the NAD, you might consider their new C521BEE. Otherwise, I can say only great things about Plinius (specifically, the 8200 MKII).I wonder, too, if your impressions of each of the integrateds that you auditioned were d... | |
