In any case, a friend of a friend had an extra ticket and I went. Pretty bizarre show but the band was surprisin... | |
| oppo 105d mod or look for a new cd player ? Jwt before you post the type of derogatory comment about a vendor who makes a living by modifying gear and who otherwise has a seeming very good reputation, you might want to provide more details of YOUR personal experience.

| What's your "diminishing returns" preamp choice? David your comment about older generation cj preamps is interesting and timely in my case.
