| Help me pick an amp for under $5,000 a mac mc402....and it would be just fine if you upgrade your speakers, though the forests and the mac will fill your big room | |
| Audio cables or Audio gear from N Z or Australia well, of the brands mentioned, there are none that sound bad, or look like they are built by the guy who flys the plane in those 'mad max' movies, but assuming 'state-of-the-art' is just that, my 'quirky' comment stands. and yes, the insides of so... | |

| Audio cables or Audio gear from N Z or Australia the 'art' they've got down...the 'state' is queationable. the 'inerds' of most of smaller companies stuff is comical. kind of the audio equivilent of that quirky nz film 'goodbye porkpie.' | |
