Best sounding cd's
Eva Cassidy "Time After Time" and "Blues Alley" 
Epos M12 as a replacement ???
I do not know the NHT's but do have the Epos M12's hooked up to a Creek 5350SE and I am very happy with how it sounds. The Creek is somewhat laid back while the Epos are more forward, making a great partnership. I would completely disagree about t...

Muralman1,Likewise, I would love to here the Jolida. You have me thinking. For a little more than the price of the mod, I could pick up a used JD100.Regards,

Hey Aida-w,Jethro Tull with full orchestra coming up at Tanglewood August 12th.Regards,
