| Krell KAS amplifier hum You could try the Ebtech HumX, but you might need two. | |
| Need advice Are you prepared to buy used, or does it have to be new?If you could find some kind of demo discount deal on the Lintons mentioned above, that would be great. | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados No love for Bernstein?For a real contrast, you can hear Gershwin himself playing it on "The Essential George Gershwin". | |
