| Music first or sound first? So true @pcrhkr . | |
| Proac K6 Signature, Sonus Faber Amati Tradition,Verity Audio Amadis, Kharma DB-9 That they closed is sad and a loss to the audio world, but it does not diminish the value of what they have achieved and created. +1 @toronto416 Speakers can generally go on for a couple of decade before needing to re-foaming or other issues, ... | |
