| flat speaker quandary Nick,Try some Transparent speaker cables, they're a match made in heaven. Bi-wire is the only way to go with ML's IMHO. Don't give up, they are great transducers in their price range. | |
| What to add to my system for best sound? Welcome Julie,It's been mentioned a few times already, but knowing the room set up and your musical preferences would help a lot. The Axioms can stay for a while, you could've done a lot worse. You mention a lack of detail, that may be partially i... | |

| Tuner choices? Help me please Vintage Tuner Site Nicotine deprived while experimenting with HTML, not an ideal mix. Sorry for the multiple posts to the same question. As for the Fins, here's hoping they prove me wrong and beat Philly tonight... | |

| Tuner choices? Help me please The new tuners don't seem to measure up to the vintage stuff, I suspect the ability/talent to design a world class front end has fallen by the wayside. Engineers are taught how to design with digital circuits, RF/analog is a foreign concept to 99%... | |
