| Taylor Swift Concert Prices @charliech she did not handle or come out well from her private jet mileage scandal, but in general she seems like a good human being | |
| the big one: how do you choose speakers? By what features, data? @mijostyn The reason modern enclosed loudspeakers like Wilsons and Magicos are so expensive is that in order to make that kind of speaker work well you have to make perfectly silent enclosures and very complicated crossovers aside from using gr... | |
| the big one: how do you choose speakers? By what features, data? @recklesskelly "expert" - anyone who knows more than me. Practically ANYONE on this forum.
