| Review: Dahlquist DQ-10 Speaker I heard Jon is not doing so well. I did not know he was in an accident. Blue strat can you give an update on how Jon is doing now? Nice system. I have heard Janus subs in several systems and like them. They are definently not one note bass. | |
| Audiokinesis Speakers I was at the RMAF show also. The Jazz Modules are great. He was using Atma-sphere amp and pre amp. It was the best I heard Atma-sphere. Realistic energy but yet smooth. I agree with slowhand the cabinets are beautiful. I visited the room 3 times a... | |

| Some impressions from the 2007 RMAF: WhartI attended many CES shows when they were in Chicago years ago. Back then the good stuff was in the hotel rooms separate from the mass produced stuff. The show was intended for dealers but it was still a good time for the hobbiest like us. The... | |
