| Your favorite Small Apartment Speakers @OP,Yes, I think the Gaia should help with unwanted bass frequencies migrating to other apartments.FWIW, I hope to be trying some Townshend isolation products with my system. I just need to get some time to play...And, as an aside,I live in a sing... | |

| AMP or Preamp I second asking Johnny at Audioconnection. He knows just about everything out there, even if he doesn't sell it. And, he won't denigrate it, either. He'll give you an honest answer even if he won't make a dime.One of the best...Bob | |
| Where to listen hi end systems in Manhattan? If you can get a ride to New Jersey, Audioconnection would be my first choice. Call Johnny and see if he can help with transportation. You'd also be close to Rutts Hut and could sample their famous hotdogs. Mmm...Unfortunately, I don't have any re... |
