MP3 playback help

Hi,

15 years ago when I was in the US I was an avid SP subscriber. Since then I have returned home, to Greece, and discontinued, since I served the army and took me a while to setup the equipment i brought along. It is pretty outdated, but at the time quite descent sounding:

Museatex active x-over
2x Bryston 4B NRB amplifiers
Melos tube preamp
Rotel RCD-855 CD player w/upgrades
Pioneer AT-670 tuner
Custom made Dynaudio loudspeakers
Grado headphones

Hovland Calls It Quits

The <A HREF="http://www.hovlandcompany.com">Hovland Company</A> is no more. Less than 10 full years after its incorporation, the manufacturer of highly coveted Hovland Musicap propylene-film and aluminum-foil capacitors and visually striking electronic components has dismissed its staff and closed the doors of its manufacturing facility and headquarters in Los Angeles.

Cruising

I haven't driven a car since I left the US 6 months ago. A car is impractical and expensive here (SE Asia). Everyone drives a scooter/moped and even though I had never driven one before, I was able to zip around town on my Yamaha Nouvo within a week. It's a very practical mode of transportation. you don't feel the traffic, you zip between cars, and driving from 25-40mph, the moped is at its best. I tried taking it on a highway and even though it can generate speeds up to about 65mph, I gave up at 50mph. I was scared.

When I was a kid, I saw the Marlon Brando remake of <I>Mutiny on the Bounty</I>. I'm sure you know the story&#151;lots of bad-guy/good-guy tension between Captain Bligh and Fletcher Christian. There's also an overlay of class conflict, but with a twist: The up-and-comer is the sadist, while it's the aristocrat who is nature's nobleman.
