Hi, I am looking for bookshelf speakers to play classical music. Price range is up to 350 GBP (say 500 USD). I have heard good things of the B&W DM602 S3, Epos M5, Monitor Audio RS1, Wharfedale Diamond 9.2. I have a medium sized room (about 12x14 ft). At the moment I am leaning towards the Monitor Audios. Any other suggestions or opinions welcome Thanks

Is there anybody who did hear the Quad 2805 loudspeakers ? Seems to me they added some extra in the upper and lower regions. Especially bass is much more than in previous models and is sometimes to much for me. I think previous models especially Quad 988 had a more neutral character. What do other Quad owners think of the Quad 2805?

When someone remixes or samples a part of a record, how's it done? Do they lay their hands on masters with all the instruments & vocals separated, or do they just blank out frequencies until they've got what they want? Or is there clever computerism?

Apropos of some stuff we were doing a while ago, here is the pink noise track from th HFN-RR test disk played on my system, which is: Systemdek IV SME 3009ii arm AT-OC9 microline cartridge http://81.174.169.10/odds/dspkr/atoc9.gif It shows an essentially flat response from about 12Hz, with a slight
