| Acoustician in Phila/Delaw/S. NewJersey I second what Rives said. Of course, I must qualify that with the statement that Rives Audio did my room and they did a wonderful job. It has been the most cost effective upgrade I have ever done.I am located in the Philadelphia/NJ area, and if yo... | |
| Slipknot1 & friends in New York & Stereophile Thanks Joe. Don't know how I missed it before. As I said in the letter, Art Dudley is very much a gentleman as well as a breath of fresh air in his writing style at the magazine. Talking with him at the show was very much a highlight for me as well. | |

What a great story!My own is not quite as good, but here goes (I think I've told this one in these forums before): When I was very young, my dad would listen to jazz after we kids went to bed.

| Speaker connection for Maggie 3.6R I found a happy compromise. I did not want to tamper with the spade connections on my cables via retermination. I also did not like the idea of the usual after-market adapters.Contact Magnepan. They have a very well made solution in converting you... | |
