| Analog to Digital Hi Redglobe,For info check out "The Perfect Vision" or "AVguide", I think they're the same site.I saw it for sale and in stock at: www.cryo-parts.com. BTW: This is not a pricey unit but interesting. Pretty new though, maybe that's why you couldn't... | |

| YG Acoustics or Dynaudio Hey, I heard the YG Acoustics are the "Best" speakers in the world. | |
| Audiophiles are older than dirt On a sad note, I read that Penny from Sky King just died. | |
| Audiophiles are older than dirt "Duck and cover", like cowering under my little school desk was going to save me from the atom bomb. What a joke. 8^) | |
| Audiophiles are older than dirt Ah, the smell of mimeograph fluid in the morning! | |
| Alright ? Who brought the bandeon to the jazz gig? I saw Astor Piazolla sometime in the 80s at the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis. Enjoyed the performance very much.Up to that point I had never experienced anything like it. |
