| Vandersteen 1Ci, Tekton Lore Reference, or Fritzspeaks Grove for a small room I have owned the Vanersteen 1Cs as well as the Tekton Lores. Absolutely love the music the Vandies put out.

I mean cramming all those amps in such a short time frame is quite a task for your ears. Even though my searching toppe... | |
| Resale value Nope. I try to buy at market value (or below) and if I sell, I hope to sell at market value. | |

| Best sounding CD Players with Variable Outputs to use Direct into Power Amp? A little late here, but I use a Resolution Audio Opus 21 directly in to my amps. Before that I used a Resolution Audio CD50 sometimes direct. Both players control volume in the analog domain. The Opus 21 sounds wonderful this way.The older RA cdps... | |
| What drugs do you use to enhance your listening experience? "If it were legal here I'd probably take a puff or two to catch that buzz. I used to enjoy it quite a bit. It’s not legal so I don’t."I was always under the assumption the illegality was part of the fun. "Hi, officer, what seems to be the problem?... | |
