checking out the APRIL issue, no comment from CHORD on it's failure to meet it's specs. But it's a GLORIOUS who needs all them extra watts $75,000 product. Let us all remember double the loudness is 10X the power!!! What's a few hundred missing WATTS. Gee, somehow when I went from single to B-AMP now 4 MONO high powered amps, not just volume increase but clarity and CONTROL.

I'd love to go to his presentation (since I love vinyl and am the only Cornell student I know with a turntable), but I'm going to a concert in Syracuse that night...

With official audio downloads and even CDs and high-rez audio now encumbered with DRM (digital rights management) technology, it would appear we are at the dawn of the restricted music format age. Is this a problem for you, or just another bump in the audio road?

I have an philips external sound card and I would like to connect my sony subwoofer. The setup I am doing is 2.1 with my amp connecting with a standard stereo 3.5 to the front output on my soundcard. I would next like to use the rca mono input on my subwoofer to connect it to the LFE output on my sound card. My question is, what kind of male connector do i use with the sound card, mono or stereo? And if stereo what cable do i buy to get the signal to that one rca input on the sub.

<I>Last week, the Electronic Frontier Foundation's (EFF) <A HREF="http://www.stereophile.com/news/031306eff/">Fred von Lohmann</A> talked with us about how fair use created unexpected riches for Hollywood, created the iPod boom, and how dismantling it could prove disastrous for consumers. This week, we resume that conversation with a discussion about digital rights management (DRM) and why the computer industry is willing to support it, even though its consumers never asked for it.</I>
