| Future of this hobby? tvad is right. what we are witnessing is a cultural change, even within the ever shrinking hi end hobby. | |
| Top Ten Interconnects of all time... 1. copper...2.silver....3.more copper....4.the carbon thingys......5. still more silver and copper.....i guess 6 through ten would be even more copper. | |
| Eastern Electric/Manley i used one for three weeks and as i said, they sound pretty good. they are however not in the same league as the manley stingray and are built at a 'nameplate'factory in china. the biggest industrial pirate in the world. | |
| Future of DVD-A sdcampbell is right. | |
| Plinius 9200 with Spendor s8e? i think you should go for an ss amp to use with your tube pre. plinius would be very good. the urge to simplify will hopefully go away. you've got a great system(classic components), but the spendors do love as much power as you can give them. | |

| Why China Isnt Happening Yet the world is being flooded with pirated merchandise from china, including but not limited to...stereo components & accessories, dvd's, cd's, blank tapes, clothing, shoes, automotive parts.....whats more, dozens of high end audio companies are ... | |
| Myth: low-power high-efficiency for anyone who loves rock or classical music(orchestra), set's simply don't cut it with any loudspeaker. once the rock era began, they were obsolete. there is no denying they have a charming sound, but very limited appeal. except for a few audioph... |
