| Seller Unresponsive after payment. Hopefully you didn't use Friends And Family to save a few bucks. FnF is a simple transfer, Pay Pal will not recognize it as a purchase of goods. I insist on payment for goods or services, and I will eat the surcharge if needed.... Cheap insurance,... | |

| Help and opinions needed on pre-amp situation The only constructive suggestion I can offer, is Yes to a pre-amp. I like the versatility of having a pre in the system. I listen to mostly vinyl and CD: jazz, classical, avant-garde, experimental, and 70's "hippie" country rock, along with swing... | |

| Best Full-Function Preamplifier I'm a vintage guy, the result of my Uncle's involvement, I guess. I happen to like my ancient SAE 2100L (I have the add on EQ and Parametric boxes all standing by and ready to go back in the game). I had everything recapped, cleaned, and tested a... | |

| Gary Wright has passed away I, too, am a Spooky Tooth fan. Gary was an exceptional musician and song writer. My prejudice against repetitive album rock FM and top 40 is the only reason I don't have his solo work (and DSOTM). I will fix the hole in my collection. And, tonight... | |
| Being alone with your music Born in '55 to an American farm boy and a young sophisticated German girl. Mom loved music, classical, swing, and big band. She had a thing for Herb Alpert... I can't remember when it showed up, probably a Christmas gift, but one of the "kiddie" r... |
