Audiophile Gold import CD's?
I have a lovely "Japanese MFSL" version of Magical Mystery Tour that I picked up a while ago on E-bay (before I saw threads here noting that they were all fakes). Upon receipt, it was clearly a fake. Seller mysteriously disappeared from E-Bay afte... 
Integrated's equipped for biwiring??
I would think any integrated should work as Sugarbrie said. I bi-wired B&W N804's from a MF A300 integrated (just one set of terminals). Works fine.Interestingly enough, this weekend I was hooking up some Boston Acoustics SubSat 7's (2 satelli...

Outdoor "rock" speakers
Works for classical as well...sort of like sitting on the lawn at Tanglewood (summer home of the Boston Symphony). 
Outdoor "rock" speakers
Sorry. Should have proofed. Should read "Didn't look bad in front of an old rock wall...". 
Outdoor "rock" speakers
I bought a pair of Rockustics' Econorocks a couple of years ago. Didn't look in front of an old rock wall at the edge of the woods in my backyard about 30' from my deck. While not "audiophile" quality, actually sounded pretty good too given the op... 
Why do DIY products have less value ?
Many people probably think about the DIY projects they did themselves either as a kid or otherwise and extrapolate that experience to all DIY situations (for example, I believe I am a fairly good amatuer carpenter but I recognize my limitations an...
