Top 5 Rock n Roll Vocalists

Barefoot MM27 Active Speakers for Home Audio
Hey Dr-joe - please let us know your thoughts when you get them. I suspect the negative responses here are merely due to differences in tastes. Being a pro speaker these will sound fairly clinical and very tight in the bass. A design that would no...
