| Anyone pay 1st price, Even if it's fair ? Poll I agree with C123666. Sometimes it can be frustrating to see something for sale with at a fixed price that is obviously too high given the market. I don't think there's anything wrong with saying, "If you decide you're willing to talk about the pr... | |
| solid state gear- leave on? I too am forced to respectfully disagree with Pabelson. Turning an SS amp on and off daily is -the- action that shortens its life more than anything else (given the presence of adequate ventilation, of course). Also in response to Pabelson, SS amp... | |

| best concert venue 1. Concertgebouw2. Musikverein in Vienna3. Newly renovated Severance HallI used to like Yoshi's, but it's a little too refined for me now. I liked the grunge of the old one! | |
