| Subwoofer for Magnepan 1.6's Martin Logans also mate well with planars. Their subwoofers are also compact in size and can produce tight bass. | |

| Smetana Ma Vlast On CD, both versions with Rafael Kubelik are quite special. I think the one on Supraphon slightly edges over the one on Orfeo as regards spontaneity because this is a live performance, Rafael's first return to his homeland after a long period of e... | |
| KT100 is better than KT88? This is very helpful. Thank you. | |
