It could improve the sound of some amplifier/speaker combinations, but is probably not necessary in most

"Sounds' good, But...."

To wit: "It's a wonder we can feed ourselves...."  ( Thanks, Bob...)

The only day I expect that we will finally agree upon One Given Thing...

...is the day the comet is just about to cash the planetary ticket.

"We're all righteously screwed!"

Yup.

Now....about that Black Sabbath LP....
