| Music Preferences and Comments: | |
| Music Used (Genre/Selections): | Jazz, classical, for the most part. Some old time and bluegrass. |
| System Goals/Comments: | Urgh, now I have the DIY bug and am looking at Bottlehead separates. I'm headed on a dangerous path... but the SETs are calling. |
| System Strengths: | The HK integrated sounds wonderful. Great mid-range and decent volume. I still love the Ohms, and really like the smoothness of the "new" old thorens. |
| System Weaknesses: | Not really happy with the Grado. Feel duped by the Grado ravers and catalogs. Should have saved up for an MC. That'll be my next move. |
| Video/HT System: None | |
