| Toyota Camry LE has a Pretty Good Sound System How awful - I hope this new drug will soon be available - I can't remember the name but from what I read it is promising and I hope your wife can get access to it. | |
| Rain-X as CD Enhancement Treatment You believe in a process that's slow and neigh unto imperceptible which changes components over 1,000 hours, Actually I don't - at least not for my crap target gear.My example was just taking the attributes commonly ascribed to a designated "audi... | |
| Rain-X as CD Enhancement Treatment I don't understand why you would say a piece of equipment never sounds the same twice.I also don't understand why you would say "target" quality gear always sounds the sameTbg,It was just a simple game of logic. If a designated "audiophile compon... | |
