| Is the Eico HF 81 really that good? You can reference my Fisher 500c article (sterophile.com, historical) where I mention a guy in HK who makes and sells banana/lug adaptors. Or for a cheap fix go to Home Depot elctronics section and look for lugs that have barrel screws about the s... | |
| Audiophile license plates At the height of my mid life crisis I had the following PA plates on my 1996 911 Cab:"HI-END"Looking back on it embarrasses me.Peter | |
