| Are Ohm-Walsh micros and 1000 series disrespected because of omni-directional design?? Could be that we all have just accepted and became accustomed to direct two channel sound. I really don't like the idea of music surrounding me, and to declare it good and the best ever heard. Maybe the Ohm design team declared war on that olde... | |
| Are Ohm-Walsh micros and 1000 series disrespected because of omni-directional design?? To mapman, you are a prince among men. I greatly appreciate your offer, but I live in Los Angeles.

| Dynaco FM-5 Tuner. Is it still worth the money to service and possibly upgrade?? Barrysandy, Thank you for the reply. The information is helpful. However I doubt Van Alstine would do an the upgrade on an FM-5 for less than $300.00 plus round trip shipping. I assume if he still does upgrades, he would also check the alignme... | |
| Has anyone had trouble acessing the Industry Directory Page of manufacturers?? To dweller, Amen !!! AG's web designer must be an idiot or AG is run by idiots. The order of their day seems to be lets make the site "cooler" and also more difficult to navigate and use. They are losing customers by the boat load. Take special... | |
| Dynaco A-25, the Large Advent, and JBL Century L-100: which one nad the best sound?? Thanks to all for the responses so far.
