| Help choosing a Conrad Johnson preamp Hi this is a bit late to add this but for reference CJ will install a new set of main outs for I believe $140 or so if I remember right, it was pretty reasonable | |
| Is there any bad sounding high-end gear--? I personally agree completely that the 90's were the best time for audio based on several facts.The Computer revolution had made many parts available and resources for higher grade parts available at prices that were never seen beforeThere was fin... | |

| system number 2 Focal Electra's first series has come down significantly, I set a friend of mine up with a pair of 905's and they sang quite well. Personally for a budget system Id like to look for the product that put a company on the map, or a companies first e... | |
