| Choose between McIntosh MA9000 used vs MA8950 new @jastralfu Just because a person shopped the used market today, yesterday, or last week and didn’t find anything to their satisfaction, doesn’t mean that they should just give up on the used market and run out and buy new.

| The Rapid Rise (& Fall) of the CD As previously stated, at this juncture, I like streaming my music exclusively, and I enjoy it immensely. But, to be perfectly honest with you, I wish that CD, reel to reel, cassettes, turn tables, and even 8 track, would all make huge come backs.... | |
