| Infinity F.E.T. preamp I saw the FET preamp and Class D amp appear - and disappear years ago (1977?)! Poor marketing? I bought my first pair of Infinity speakers that year - Monitor 1A's. | |

| Seeking informed advice on speaker acquisition (Vandersteen vs. OHM Walsh) +1 for Ohm Walsh's! I have a pair of the Sound Cylinders. They do sound amazing! 3-D imaging, performers right in the room! I own many speakers, the Walsh's might surpass them all!! | |

| insurance and shipping with UPS And the UPS store would have done it! You'd have to request it and pay extra, of course! | |

| insurance and shipping with UPS You should have stood there and watched to make sure they packed your amp properly! I used my nearby UPS store here in Florida to pack and ship several components. All reached their destinations safely! Maybe my luck was better than yours! I didn'... | |
| Ortofon SPU Century, time to celebrate the heritage? +1 edgewear! How about that new $16K Grado (!!!) that MF raved about in Stereophile? These ultra-expensive cartridges are the equivalent of diamond-encrusted watches! | |
| DO CABLES REALLY MATTER? +1 cleeds! I got a good laugh from your response to my "Wire is like ..." post! I do know which goes where! |
