Silversmith Fidelium Speaker Cables
i just have to chime in that while the cables didn't work with my amp (Luxman M900 U---either the binding posts were too oddly shaped OR the amp didn't like the inductance), Jeff Smith turned out to be everything an audiophile could hope for. des... 
ARC Ref 3 - thoughts?
the 5se offered better leading edge, bass articulation and depth. if you dont want to spend the $, buy upgraded fuse & power cord. and footers. ---there's lots of improvement just there (and portable to the 5se at a later date)

TV gives me a headache when its on; any suggestions?

David Crosby If Only I Could Remember My Name
cd is OK quality, but musically? ---easy to argue its better than anything CSN(y) did. what a record. and that pic of him w/ the red background staring into the camera? ---if you needed foreshadowing of him getting busted for drugs, that pic was it.  
Who listens primarily to Redbook CD?
thats one of the top reasons: collection on display.if not from the personal satisfaction i get from seeing my virtually complete May 77 grateful dead catalog, then it comes from when i (as a single man) have women over and ask them to pick out so...
