| Core Audio Designs ....The Man, The Myth...The Legend - Arnold Marr I agree entirely, Arnold is an absolute joy to work with and a true gentleman.

| The Audiophile Song - Who Can Relate? Thanks for sharing rooze. Very funny song/video, certainly made me smile. Been an audiophile for more than 55 years now, pleased to report I am no where near as crazy as the guy in the video. | |
