trades and b&p's welcome. i will always try to help those who have an honest need. please use quality discs and materials in trades. mainly i ask that because i do and it's well worth it, this system is too cool to be cheap! please no tao. other than that, i am personally not real concerned about source information, basicly as long as the sound quality is good. please realize that my show rating system is to my tastes. as far as sound quality, 'a+' would indicate pretty much flawless, 'a' would indicate maybe a few pops or something minor. 'a-' start thinking a gap or less than desireable recording overall, and 'b+' maybe look for another show and read the tech notes. i am always open to discussion on shows.? i may be fast, i may be slow, i will get you your tunes and communicate though. promise. thanks to all the traders for helping getting me going.
