Drinking invariably improves my listening sessions. Everything sounds better when I'm spinning a good cabernet in a nice glass. ;) 
OK - Now What…?
I bet that Diablo jams! Now what? Go stock up on some good cabs. Your system will sound even better when you're drinking ;). 
Problem with Bryston 4B SST.
