Leslie & Corky - Need I saw any more, again???
I saw them the weekend before last at the Scottish Rite Temple in Collingswood NJ, and I have a different take on the evening.First, I want to say that I did enjoy it, and it was really good to see the guys again. I felt really old when I realized... 
Dahlquist crossover upgrade from Regnar?

Best Christmas Album
Glad you asked. I have several dozen, and of course they range from Perry Como, Johnny Mathis, Andy Williams etc. plus lots of Orchestral and Choral and some rock (not much). With all of that, my 2 perennial favorites are the Carpenters Christmas ...

What do you gain from bi-amping Magnepan 1.6s or
I haven't done it myself, but if I understand the theory correctly, the advantage, besides additional power is supposed to be that the one pair of amps that is only producing the mid/treble frequencies can do a better job with lower distortion if ...
