| ATC scm 19 upgrade ?? How do you connect your atc´s ? bi-wiring? My passive 20's are the old kind with no biwire posts ('95 model). I run monster cable from the power amp to the binding post - no spades on either end but everything good and tight.The reason I warn you... | |

| ATC scm 19 upgrade ?? Avocet can be similar than benmarch but avocet is far superior used in hundred of mastering roomsI did not mean to imply Avocet is comparable in quality to DAC1 - I just read Bob Katz review thats all. I don't know this Avocet at all - so I simpl... | |
| Speakers sound best facing wall???? And Obama is the President. One night, a Boeing 747 was flying above Glasgow. On board were five people: the pilot, Amar, Omar, the Imam, and a rather high (in several ways, after just winning the US election) Obama. Suddenly, a loud explosion was... | |

| "Picking On" tribute albums Paint It Blue: Songs of the Rolling Stones has an awesome version of Honky Tonk by Taj Mahal - very well recorded. I recommend this highly. On a good system this song is highly impressive. Anyone who was impressed by Mighty Sam McClain CD's will e... | |
