Isolation for speakers on spikes

Is calibration services for DLP set worth it?
Absolutely worth it. Will bring out the best your DLP is capable of. I have a DLP as well. $300 sounds cheap, I believe I paid a bit more. That was last December. May be a bit more competitive now. I suppose, like Krellcoda said, the claibrator is...

Speaking of overlooked female vocalists: Anita Baker. Just don't hear about her enough. Man could she sing for a white girl. I believe she is still alive? Must be in her 80s. Oh, and a big yes to Ben Webster. Try Soulville on Verve, too. warren :)
