| Mike Doughty Fans? I saw soul coughing at the 9:30 club back in the day ('98)and I was actually lucky enought to trade for a a cd of the show. He is playing here in boston on the 13th and I'm amped for it. And Mike, if you ever read this, here's a second plea to rel... | |

| Wilson Benesch A.C.T speakers? I am not sure if they were the act speakers, but at montreal son+image they had a pair of their speakers in an all analog setup that sounded very good. Refined and tight sounding, wide soundstage and great separation of instruments. | |
