| opinions on 2nd system The room is not exactly rectangular and dimensions would be 8' one wall14' other wall12' wide that tapers to 8'It's a condo at the ocean, if that helps. Walls are just drywall and construction itself is concrete and steel. In back of the speakers ... | |

| Your latest "HOT " secret music............ Good question.Michael Rother.I've had his german synthesizer stuff for > 20 years now, but it seems to have stood the test of time in excellent fashion. They used to be what I'd call decent stuff--now I flat out love them and they are certainly... | |
| EL34 comparisons please Agreed.I did the same---jj to svetlana on the CJ and run infinity speakers as well. It just seems to be a better marriage and handles dynamics much much better. | |

| The Crazy World of Arthur Brown Arthur moved back to england a few years ago and recently released a cd. He's always released stuff every 3 years or so since 1976, but you have to dig for them. He still plays live on occasion and uses 1 or 2 keyboard players and a drum machine. ... | |
| The Crazy World of Arthur Brown Vincent Crane was the keyboard player and actually wrote the song. He split off and formed atomic rooster.There are actually quite a few brown albums worth owning and he has that screaming jay hawkins type shreiking down, which not everyone likes. | |
| Help CJ premier 4 blowing fuses ?? Yes it is the big plate fuse, I believe. the amplifier has a large fuse for each channel and then another fuse for the amplifier itself. It blows the right channel fuse. nobody around these parts has a tube tester so that's kind of the reason I po... |
