| Music Hall or Rega TT In the price range you are talking about, try and stretch it a bit and get a VPI Scout. It's better than the MMF and Regas. If you can buy used and want to keept the costs down, look at a used HW 19. Both the Scout and the HW 19's also have very s... | |
| I have figured out the upgrade itch My rules for the upgrade itch:1. Keep the damn audio mags in a room away from your system. Reading them while listening ensures component buying fever.2. Ditto for the laptop ;) | |

| Deepest Bass in the Known Universe... Riddle me this, Batman: If a Black Hole generates a deep bass note in space and no one hears it, does it make a sound? Seriously though, can sound be generated in a lack of air? Doesn't the wave front created make sound by pushing the air around i... | |
