Tonight when I came home from work, son and husband were busy tinkering with that "record player".

Seems they have a new project to work on together.
So it begins.

As long as they don't stumble on to a pair of Altec A7s or some big Voice of the Theaters', most speakers are small, relatively .

My Vandersteen Threes are only four feet tall.

One of the fancy technical terms that they would learn at AK is "WAF," which stands for "Wife Acceptance Factor." As a result of some of that factor, many of the negotiations about which you speak have taken place here.

Never had that problem, even when I was driving stacked Advents, as long as I was happy Florence went along.
