Hi George
I'd be interested to hear more (or even something) about that Eddie Vaughn Carina. The user reviews are outstanding. Your comment on upgraditus remission indicates that maybe you feel the same. How did you come to this amp choice and what preceded it? Did you order it unheard? Most importantly, what do you think it delivered and contributed to your "system"?

Hi George,
I just noticed you here.
You have changed a lot of things since "Decware" days.
Me too.
Great looking system!
