| Proac SM100 speaker stand? Current Target HR or MR come to mind. Years ago the Target "R" series were the go to for Proac. I have 20 year old HR's (used with Castle/Reynaud/KEF) and feel that they would be fine VS the more expensive MR's. Solid one piece welded steel con... | |
| Buyer Beware I've seen many of "these" for sale ads in the early morning hours. Only members with half a brain would take them seriously as they are so obvious. Next we will see the same ads (zero feedback/zero post sellers) asking prices slightly more a-tun... | |

| How important is spending time with your gear? PS: In the 70's I took my 12V DC capable Advent 300 receiver to a few outdoor keggers. It was the life of the party. DeKay | |

Erik: The electronics for the main/living room system have resided in a hall closet for the past 20+ years (speaker wire fed through 4 small holes in the front/speaker wall). Just speakers and approx. 4 foot lengths of speaker cable in the livin... | |
| Most Realistic Recordings Joe Jackson has numerous well recorded albums (New York Live and others). I have the originals, but there are now some remasters out that are highly thought of. I would like Body and Soul on CD (for the little computer setup) and am considering ... |
