No "sorry" is necessary... but I gotta say... I completely agree with Peeerless. There is a MAJOR difference... regardless of someone's poor speaker, system, or ear performance. (And think... I built 140db+((twice the volume of a jet engine at 1 meter)) systems for several years!... If I can hear the difference.......)

My hearing is trashed!!! But I can tell the difference. It's more than likely the sound card and speaker performance... but an ace is an ace, a spade is a spade. Thank goodness for the great HQ search results on fastTrack!

Thanks for the earlier strokes on the music systems, Vlad!
