| What the 802 and 3 Decades can tell us about trends The trend is clear. The pendulum has swung. At 500 words to say "buy what you like" it can only swing back to brevity. We hope. | |

| Just another Orange fuse thread The only reason threads like this get closed down is because trolls like George go out of their way to denigrate and incite others to levels of acrimony way out of proportion to the discussion. He even rejoices in the closing of threads, bragg... | |

| Any love for newer Krell amps? Honestly, I was not able to hear either the Krell or Coda. Both were highly recommended by the same dealer (Dave Lalin) but he had a higher recommendation for the Krell despite the higher price. He arranged for the CEO of Krell to call me and disc... | |
