| One of my closest friends is gone. Can one of you who knew him tell us more about him? I never heard of him, but it sounds like he worked in a high end store. I would like to hear the back story.Anyway, my condolences to his family, and those of you who lost a friend. | |
| Quads Unlimited Restored Quad ESLs As usual, your review is very detailed and complete. It is easy to visualize the character of the sound (as much as that is ever possible ) from your description. From your review, and others that I have read in the past, it seems that having olde... | |

| accuphase compare to mcintosh Audiozen,You really sound like you are desperate to prove that Accuphase is better than McIntosh, but the reasons that you come up with are absurd. Three cooling fans in a player proves bad engineering? If you are qualified to second guess their d... | |

I use one, and really like it, but I have no way of knowing what might be better for you. I know that it is much better that MDF, o... | |
| Suggested Stands for B&W 805 Diamonds Thesoundhouse is correct. Besides that, when you sell them, they will be more desirable to the buyer if they are sold with the proper stands. | |
| Does anybody have any thoughts on E55Ti Tower You should probably mention what brand of speaker you are referring to. | |
| Review: CH Technologies X15 power cord Chuck,I do appreciate your review. CH Technologies should really appreciate it too, because it is only through word of mouth that companies in the brutally competitive cable game are going to prosper if they don't develop informative, easy to use ... | |
