| Marantz SA 8005 break in When I had my SA-8004, it had that treble hardness for the 2 years I owned it. The player probably had at least 2000 hours on it and that treble harshness never went away. I sold it and bought an Esoteric instead. There was no break in time wit... | |
| Tell Us about an Album That Took a Long Time to Grow on You Amused to Death by Roger Waters. It took me years to get through the entire album as before I was listening to just a few choice songs.
