| What Meatloaf and Beer Have Taught me about Audiophiles I make a famous meatloaf for the kids called "Face loaf". A human head with a carrot nose, olive eye balls, apple skin for lips and eye brows. Then a red tomato gravy for a bloody face effect is always a hit. There is NO bad meatloaf. Some are be... | |

| Are there any recording artists you just can’t listen too? Bruce Springsteen. He can't sing and he can't play guitar either. I know, I know everyone loves him. I can't even consider him as a vocalist. Horrible. | |
| Jay's Audio Lab Visits GR Research's Listening Room It seemed to me that Jay was polite but not blown away. The expectation of such a large, grand system could be a tall order (no pun intended). The music selection on the video didn't seem to match the dynamic capability. Not exciting music. If th... | |
| Using non-terminated speaker wire? Bare wire, Straight strand not twisted in a good tight compressed lug. | |
