mccormack or odyssey I have a McCormack DNA-125 and have been quite impressed with it. FYI - Steve McCormack (smcaudio@aol.com)offers an upgrade path for the amp. I am looking forward to this option when I can afford it. Supposedly, the upgraded amps are quite competi... | |

Can we have an "Ask Sean" catagory? When I envision Sean and his rig's, I think of the professor on Gilligan's Island. Half's of basketball's holding woofers made out of latex gloves and tweeters made out of soda cans, speaker wires made out of aluminum foil, a rubber band drive cdp... | |
