Through a poll or other means, maybe we could establish "reference systems", that people on the net might use, instead of asking the same questions all the time: what is the best CD player, etc? The number of system is unimportant. (The recent article of budget, expensive, price-no-object presents a interesting premise.) Granted we don't have the equipment that Stereophile/Absolute Sound/Audio has access too. But we don't have their axe to grind either. It's a thought and could be of service, in increasing the quality of purchase on the net. [Please do... I think it's a great idea! -tjk] Randy ________________________________________________________ Randy Price randy@uutopia.dell.com The opinions are my own, not my employers, cognito.
