Jay didn’t seem too impressed with the sound, and he couldn’t talk his way around it, because you could see... | |
| Im going to regret my cable question There's a thousand cables out there to choose from that are in your price range, new or used. You can't go wrong by upgrading up the Audioquest chain. Audioquest makes fabulous cables all around. Happy listening. | |

| Bose Chucks Mac The problem with Best Buy is that, when they reconfigured all their stores, they really downgraded what the Magnolia HiFi section of the store was all about. Magnolia HiFi used to be treated as a actual specialty high end audio store in Best Buy. ... | |

As for the JPS Labs Aluminata power cables (the original ones) being old technology.....not for me, as it bested every ot... | |
| a rant I reached the point in my audiophile journey that you are in right now about four years ago. At age 65 and now retired, I put my retirement system together then, and now, I'm content for the duration. I've got a great system, I'm tire of dumping... | |
