| Class D Amps - FM reception I must be eating right because I haven't any FM issues with my SE's. I have clock radios, HT receiver with FM, and even some boom boxes. My yagi antenna is on the roof of my ranch style house and I'm using 75 ohm shielded cable. | |

| Anyone using Nuforce Ref 9 Mono Blocks? I bought a pair of their SE's to add a splash of color to all the boring black and gray. They look marvelous! It just amazes me how something so stylish could come from people working in Milpitas (affectionately known as the armpit of the bay area... | |
