Your best chair you listen to your gear
If you have the bucks, Ekornes Stressless Chairs are probably one of the best. Very comfortable and cool looks.BTW, I've seen Theo play his "air" instruments...it isn't pretty. 
Classic records reissue - very disappointing
I agree with Schipo. I own a lot of the Classic stuff from very early on to the final end. Some of the best are the 45RPM boxsets on Clarity Vinyl that came out right before their demise.I do have a few that are pretty weak, but overall, I've been... 
Anybody in Denver go to Audio Unlimited yesterday?

Need Recommendations for SS amp for 2 ohm load
I use a Sanders ESL amp on my Martin Logan CLSIIA's. I have auditioned MANY different amps on my speakers and I stopped here...the best I've heard...period. 
Classic Records 45RPM BoxSet Boxes?
Bobby,Thanks so much, but I am looking for the boxes for LPs, (12" records). Sorry, I wasn't even thinking that my question would be interpreted as boxes for 45's, (7 inch records).Almost all of the newer Classic Records 45RPM box sets came in a l...
