Old & New "Studio" equipment BTW, one thing I _have_ noticed, on both Bryston "Pro" equipment and JBL "Studio Monitors", is that they are gain or sonically tweakable. The Bryston stuff has L&Rgain controls on the amps, and the JBLs have mid & hi controls on their fronts. | |

Linn Kan III v Spendor S3/5 crisis "dull and lifeless" was an appropriate phrase.Thanks - your advice makes perfect sense.I certainly did not really believe the Spendors were not good speakers (well, maybe I did panic a little). I certainly wanted them to be!For the record, the lit... | |
