Amy Winehouse LP Sound Quality
I too think it's nostalgic sounding. I had downloaded a 256 kbps copy from amazon. Which was bright and loud, a typical radio mix. I got the domestic vinyl version in a local store and to me it is much better sounding than the red book copy. Eric ... 
Best P-Mount Cartridge MC or MM
I use a Technics SL-10 with MC 310 cartridge. Which is something special. Sadly the 310 is super expensive if you can find them at all. I also use a Ortofon OM 10 Super Phono MM Cartridge with a Ortofon 40 Stylus. It is the best P-Mount Cartridge ...

Front Row Text Size?
Thanks Sammie!I like the new format of Front Row. I just can't see it clearly from my chair. It can look good all day but if I can't see it what good is it. I'll bet it looks very good with a 55" wide screen TV. We are a Mac Family and we all love...

How isolated is your hi-fi?
I have my own space but it is not isolated. We have a two story house and there is a fairly large "Bonus Room" on the 2nd floor. The side/rear of the room is open to the upper stair landing. The picture posted with my system is from that landing. ...
