| will my subwoofer suffer from a long power cord? I would not say it makes no difference but I certainly would not purchase a mega buck power cord when you're running it to a sub.I would look here at Audiogon and see if you can find something used at a bargain.

| In the latest The Absolute Sound I'm not reviewing the Transrotor turntable but I am reviewing the new record cleaning machine from Germany that's also distributed by Axiss.I'm confident this new record cleaning machine is the best currently available. So far Lloyd Walker and I h... | |
