I specifically requested review samples for Jim Clements and me. Jim, UPS should come knocking at your door very soon. These beauties are a must have for anyone building a system on a budget. Keep saving that paper route money, because a preamp/a...

That's David Solomon of Peachtree on the left, and Walter Liederman (Underwood Wally) on the right. The uber efficient Zu Essence loudppeakers were an exceptional match for the Peachtree Nova.

By many accounts this year's show was busier than last. Some exhibitors saw their visitors increase three-fold.
