I spent many years becoming an "Audiophile", until one day I realized I was trying to hear the differences in wire. If you're still trying to hear the differences in wire, what difference does the music make?I hope you're back Elizabeth, I believe...

Rok, this country has gone downhill all over; I lived in St. Louis city for over 30 years and I loved it. Now it's an insane asylum without walls, and I don't blame the inmates; they're doing whatever it takes to survive. Now I live in the burbs, ...
