| DO CABLES REALLY MATTER? +1 cd318! You are about the only one to get my reference to Henry Miller! Sad that in our Internet Age hardly anybody reads him anymore! A unique voice in American fiction! | |
| DO CABLES REALLY MATTER? My recent posts are an attempt to add some humor to these oh-so-serious debates about wire! | |
| DO CABLES REALLY MATTER? Speakers too! Almost forgot! And plenty of Lp's and CD's! Some RTR tapes (getting scarce!). And I was there when Noel Lee started the fancy wire business going (Monster). So I have a long view of the audio scene! | |
