I found him an entertaining audio writer. On NBC this AM, I see a guy named Corey Greenberg demoing the latest in washer/dryer and iron technology. One in the same? .......

Hi, I use a Krell 300R on Guarneris in a secondary system with good results. Speaker cables influence the sound considerably. What did you feel was "missing" from the setups that you've tried? ::: TOP .......
