| Best Packaging in the Business No doubt about McIntosh still the best. Boys in Japan go as far as collecting them (packing) from Macs.The others good ones Jeff Rowland,Wilson,Nagra,Avalon.The worst/most disappointing JM LAB, Goldmund,SpectralJust my two cents. | |
| Best cd version of Respighi Ancient Airs Dances I own few of "Ancient Dances and Airs." So far my favorite is performed by Antal Dorati with Philharmonia Hungarica on Mercury Living Presence 434 304-2. You should be able to get it for less than $13. Enjoy itTommy | |

| Sonus Faber Extremas with Krell FPB 600? No tubes on Sonus Faber ..period...Franco himself likes/prefers ss amps from Spectral and Goldmund.... |
