    HAHA, i'm still out here! Always something creeping up to consume my time lately. Guess i'll have to dust off the rig, throw in this CD when it arrives and relax for a while, blocking out the world!

    Hope all is well! One of these days coming up, we have to catch up!

    My #00308 sounds like a million bucks. Tone from top to bottom is exceptional and the imaging is stellar. It seems like I can reach out a few feet and grab Ocasek and Orr by the chin.
