| Collectibles signed by musicians. What do you have? I have a double-signed (doesn’t hurt to ask) CD of Wagner’s "Parsifal" autographed by the conductor, Daniel Barenboim. He had a signing event at long-gone Rose Records on Wabash Avenue in Chicago. BTW, Rose Records may have been acquired by Tower ... | |

I'd set the system to mono so we could each hear all of the music instead of just what was coming out of the speaker we were next to. | |
| Why isn’t more detail always better? Don't blame your system if the music is lacking. The recording/mixing/mastering has something to do with the final product. Too much detail? If it's on the disk, I want to hear it. | |
| What is the first thing you do when you unwrap a new vinyl record? First I inspect it to make sure it isn't dished, warped or defective in any way.

| From Sonus Faber Extrema to... My impulse advice: Eggelstonworks Andra III. Personally, I'm smitten by B&W 800 series D3 (I own 804D3). Best speakers for atmosphere, depth and detail I've ever heard (diamond tweeter?). Always lusted for the Extremas. Always unaffordable (... | |

| Receiver I've always heard Anthem receivers have very good sound. The last time I looked (several years ago) they got dinged due to a poor user interface (difficult to play with). Don't know if this has been corrected. |
