| Rowland Capri Preamp I suggest doing a search, or send an email to Guidocorona. He has said a lot about this preamp. He's had extensive experience with it, and has only positive things to say. Incidentally, I auditioned it and thought it was terrific for the money. | |
| Are there any albums you consider perfect? Nothing's perfect, but still:Born to RunKind of BlueWaltz for DebbyAfter the GoldrushJust a few off the top of my head. There are several classical pieces that I might consider "perfect" too. | |

| Rockport Ankaa and Anquila Great to see a thread about Rockport. After being on the audiophile upgrade path for 30 years, I got off after buying Antares in early 2001. I still love them. I guess I didn't really get off the path, because I did upgrade other components. The A... | |

| Your ONE all time favorite love song? Well, this changes all the time for me, and I don't have the time to think about or research songs I've forgotten. I'll just say that "This Life" by Bruce Springsteen is very, very good. | |
| Killing BluRay, new Oppo BR 83 Macdadtexas,I will not agree or disagree about the future of Blue-Ray, or how many people will feel that BR makes enough difference to "invest in". I will, however, make an audio analogy: just as with truly great/neutral speakers one will hear dif... | |

| Speaker Ideas upto $2500 I definitely suggest you consider used Merlin TSMs. You likely would be able to sell them for what you paid, if you keep them in good shape. | |
