| getting into streaming @audiotroy Thank you...I guess the better question is, is the Empire worth the added $ over the Manhattan in function and sound. Although Mytek website doesn't show any Manhattan products. And you can get a free amp with an Empire purchase(... | |
| getting into streaming @nmolnar I was looking at the new Brooklyn Bridge II....If money were no object, would you get the Empire over the Brooklyn Bridge II? Does the extra $ translate to better function and sound....Thx.... | |
