So, just when I start getting used to <a href="http://blog.stereophile.com/stephenmejias/my_new_rega_p3-24/">my white P3-24</a>, Rega goes and introduces three new high-gloss finishes: Orange, Blue, and Pink. Can you believe it? I feel kinda ripped-off. Had I known, I might've gone with Orange. I might've gone with Blue. I might've gone with Orange <i>and</i> blue. (Let's go Mets.) Hell, I'm in touch with my feminine side and secure in my masculinity; I might've gone with pink.

After <A HREF="http://www.stereophile.com/solidpreamps/1207bo">Fred Kaplan reviewed</A> Boulder Amplifiers' 810 line preamplifier and 860 power amplifier for the December 2007 <I>Stereophile</I>, John Atkinson requested that I listen to the 860 in my own system for a while. Never having reviewed <I>any</I> Boulder kit, I was curious.

It's been a while since I auditioned a Meridian CD player in my system. I had enthusiastically reviewed the English company's groundbreaking <A HREF="http://www.stereophile.com/cdplayers/285meridian">Pro-MCD player</A> in early 1986, and over the years had kept up with the progress they were making in digital playback, either through my own reviews or by performing the measurements to accompany reviews by other <I>Stereophile</I> writers. The 508-24 player, <A HREF="http://www.stereophile.com/cdplayers/590">reviewed by Wes Phillips</A> in May 1998, was one of the finest digital products of the 1990s, I thought. But when Meridian began promoting surround sound and DVD-Audio at the turn of the century, their goals became somewhat incompatible with my own. Yes, I can appreciate what surround playback can do, but my own musical life is still solidly rooted in Two-Channel Land.
