You could work for any manufacturer, past or present...

Buchardt S400 Special Edition speakers -- any impressions?
@whitestixCongrats on the Buchardts...it is interesting how these guys seemed to come out of the clear blue offering products that pretty much everyone agrees sound really good.How would you describe the size of the soundstage comparison with the ...
