| HDCD recommendations?? I second Gslone with the King Crimson, "Red" is my favorite release. | |
| Isolation footers for Rotel RCD-1072 With a well assembled system such as you've put together I say yes you will hear a difference. I think the heavy feet recommended above are worth every dollar. The difference I noticed in the sound when I put them under my Rotel was a more laid ba... | |
