Biwiring Maggies is better. A lot better. Even better if you get an aftermarket crossover.KF 
Audio photo gallery for A-gon members
Interesting site Scott. You have a lot of trust giving the Audiogon Community your login and password. I am not sure if I would be that trusting. Maybe I will take some pics of my gear with my digital camera and upload them.KF 
How do you clean your records?

What was your latest LP find??

Why Put Up With "Wife Approval Factor"?
Thedauch, this is a bit short sited. SOME woman actually work and MAKE money! And Many make more than they spend. These women do not 'cost' money. Man, I am all for women working. KF 
Albertporter only needs 50
Albertporter, you may have stumbled onto a way we can all get audio gear new for near dealer cost. If we could form some sort of Audiophile Consumer's Group we may be able to levelrage really good prices on new gear.Just a thought.KF 
Breaking in a sub?
As with any speaker, you have to play music through it. I'd advise just letting it break in on its own as you listen to music. One thing about speakers is that they do have moving parts, and playing them does slowly degrade the drivers. It makes m... 
Dirt on my stylus.....what to do?
