| Velodyne DD's flying out of owners' houses Drubin - You can set up the Veolodyne in each way you described. I go preamp -> sub -> amp -> speakers. I find the that the sonic gains of high-passing my speakers outweigh the loss of transparency by having the sub in the chain.Though - ... | |

| Tone -- What's It All About? While it is true that an expert can get good tone out of a crappy instrument, it is also true that a novice can get good tone out of an instrument that has good tone to begin with.I certainly think 'tone' is an appopriate word to describe a stereo... | |
