| 聖HIJIRI Users thread For whatever it may be worth to anyone, I agree with members who are speaking highly of Colin. A few months ago, I auditioned some $15K speakers from Gestalt, which were excellent, but--in the end--not for me. He did not hesitate for an instant to... | |

| Whats on your turntable tonight? Sonic Youth -- "Battery Park, NYC: July 4th, 2008 Great recording, but this is the second bad pressing in a row (lots of noise, and not the good kind, especially on side one), so back it goes. Will have to settle for streaming this one on Qobuz ... | |
