90s is old news? Oh my!Almost all of my equipment is from the 50s to the 80s, and I'm happier than a pig in ... a pigpen. I dont relate to all of this newest/expensive going-around-in-circles stuff, especially in an audio market that has become ab... 
Have you ever tried a pair of speakers and said this Is the last thing I will ever need.

Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable?
"... $5K cables not $25 cables..."Makes absolutely no difference in my view, $25 is nuts also. I recall paying much more than that, but it was 3 decades ago. "...I had dinner with the Monster Cable dude...."So what? I got my Koetsu Onyx from one ...
