How old are your speakers
Infinity Rennaisaince 90 from the early 90's. I bought a spare pair just in case. I also bought a spare pair of the EMIT tweeters just in case. I have never had to use any of the spare parts. These speakers are really special to me. The sound is r... 
Whats the weirdest concert you ever attended?
Kind of along the same line; mid 70's Pink Floyd in Los Angeles at I believe was the Sports Arena. I had bought 6 tickets and sold two of then to the catering truck driver. Ed Davis was the police chief at the time. He wasn't about to let any dope...

OK you got me to bite. Signed up and 1st tune I listed to was Paula Cole, "Tiger". Very impressive. That song has an extremely wide sound range. The bass notes shuffled the wifes china around the cupboards a bit. I love it when it does that. Thank...

"Best of UB40" is one of my favorite CD's. The recording quality is excellent. And I agree on the Sinead O'Conner mentioned above which also has awesome fidelity. -John 
User friendly playback software

Krell Restoration
I sent s KSA200 to Krell for repair from California and it was not good. I had the factory dbl box and FedX still damaged the unit enough to scrap it. I ended up with a new FBB300cx out of the deal but I had to kick down the money to make up for t...
