| Speakers as the principle component/other components are servants "Had you told us back in 1965, folks would be walking around with telephones, sending pics/videos,,we'd all laugh you at your face as scifi fantasy."I was reading Philip K.

| Cartridge recommendations? At that budget level, get the best Grado you can afford. | |
| What is the Make and Model of this speaker? Under 500 the Time Windows would be a good choice. I have a pair I'm not using in excellent condition but I can't ship. | |
