Fair enough, JAK.  I'll no longer consider you a friend, but I'm sad to
have to do that.  Thankfully, there are others who've taken my request
seriously and have given me good information.  If you'd had an opinion
about some good powered hifi speakers, I'd have been glad to have heard
it but it seems all you want to do is play "net-nanny" so more power to
you!  As I said, I want opinions from real users, not commercial
flacks.

So there you go . . .

Cheers!
