| High End Repair in Phoenix I have used James Koch a number of times. He’s always done excellent work. I have Shindo gear, and he’s probably the best Shindo repair tech in the country. | |
| Shindo vs the world I still have my Haute Brion, Vosnee Romanee, and Latour 604 speakers. This ended my search and I have no desire to upgrade or chase a different rabbit at this time. This combination works best in a medium to large room. Currently the system is... | |
