2006 BEST Female Vocal CD/SACD/XRCD

musical drummers...who are they ???
Stan Levy. You can find him on any Howard Rumsey's Lighthouse Allstar CD or album. Great West Coast Jazz. 
Have U ever bought an LP because of the cover art?
Hey, Rushton ...That's exactly what I was talking about. The older mono RCAs are just as good if not better. Kinda dark, abstract art for those who like that sort of thing ... me included. 
Have U ever bought an LP because of the cover art?

Kurt_tank ...Did you check out the Shelter 90x ...? If so, what did you think of it, and how did it compare, in your opinion, to the Koetsu?Frank 
Your ''best kept secret'' speaker choice ?
Legacy Signiture III. Very efficient, I drive mine with an Audio Research Classic 60 with no problems at all. Change out the binding posts for the good Cardas copper ones, bi-wire with good speaker wire and you're in business. Prior to buying the ...
