Heard that Fred wasn't doing very well before. But he is recovering now so I hope you all can send some prayers his way and Show your love to an ex-polkie.

Thanks Everyone!
Trying out Different Audio Cables is a Religious Affair. You don't discuss it with anyone. :redface::biggrin:

    Well, I just pulled off the impossible by doing a double-blind comparison all by myself, purely by virtue of the fact that I completely and stupidly forgot what I did last. I guess that getting old does have its advantages after all :D
