Advice for music outdoors
Great advice, thanks. I was prepared for the rain and sun, but not critters chewing on my speakers !On a similar note, anyone have ported speakers outdoors? The new speakercraft line looks interesting, but they are ported. The ports are in the fro...

Advice for music outdoors
Of course I'll be wrapping my trees in tube traps :-) Thanks all for the advice. Seems no one is suggesting higher quality amps, which is a relief (on my wallet, but I still want to buy something cool).I also found some outdoor volume controls fro... 
Good compact system?

Jolida JD 100 CD Player
I have the Jolida and love it! I'm running mine through a Sim Audio i5 into Linn Tukans and an ACI Force sub (with Amperex Bugle Boy 12ax7's, which work well in my setup).I haven't directly compared to the Genki, but I have heard the Genki and hav...
