Did I do the right thing?

Any tricks to keep cats away from speaker grills?
Cats ain't seen the speakers since Stanley, the German Shepherd arrived. One cat was my best listening partner, often found lying on her back in front of the right speaker, or beside me on the couch. Stanley prefers the floor between the speakers,... 
BMG Music Club - new twist
I think it's $2.50 on the shipping and goes down a bit on more than one cd. Ask them for a "positive option " on your account and you won't have to send back the cards. Ask after you pay the initial costs. The phone # was in Consumer's Report a fe...

You were pleased with AP Oval 9 but you upgraded..
I have Oval 9's with Oval 12 jumpers (connects as biwire, but cheaper than 2 sets of cables). I like them a lot, and have only thought of upgrading PBJ interconnects. But, then I think "Why?"
