Since we're back to 'Off Topic' I would like to add a little something about the stereo systems (Home) from the 70's. As many of you know my other love is the systems that were around during the 'Wattage Wars' in the late 70's. During 90's-2000's, I met an extremely intelligent gentleman that turned out to become one of my best friends, we met though the love of racing Italian sports cars, he with a beautiful Black 67 Lanica Fulva Zagato, and I with the 66 Alfa GTV. We also had Music in common, he with Jazz, and I Rock & Roll, I soon began to appreciate another form of music because of him. Now to his story, he was a Wholesaler for Kilpsch Speakers & Pioneer systems, also a good friend of Paul Kilpsch. He sold a LOT of high-end Kilpsch speakers to wealthy customer's, made great money, so I said I need to sell my Speakerlabs (Company out of Seattle, they had made a few models that was a knock-off of Kilpsch) He said just hold on their pal, let's do a blind test. He came out to be correct buy what you think sounds best 'To You' I still have a pair of Speakerlab 7-WA Best for Rock&Roll, but for Jazz no speaker could compare to Kilpsch Hersey (Series 1) Later in life, before his passing, he gifted me his pair that Mr. Kilpsch had over saw the building of. A cherish gift, that will go to the Kilpsch museum after my passing, thank you for letting me ramble on about my pal 'Little Jack' Final thought: Buy what sounds best to you, cost should never be the deciding factor. Cheers Tom.

These kids today with their earbuds... they have no clue as to the visceral experience of being in the music! It's not thumpin' unless your fillings are rattling! The Klipschorn and La Scala were monsters, as well, not to mention Altec, JBL, and Community Light and Sound! Not necessarily all audiophile quality, though...
