      From: pfjw@aol.com              I think the proper term is Yichis. Why the same suit from Brooks Brothers is       worth more than from Krass Brothers.              Marantz has the legend and the pedigree, largely derived from the 10B, that       makes the other components in that series valuable. A "Matched Set" as it were.              Is the 7/7B anything special? It was at the time. Now, there are better. Along       with the 8/8B & 9/9B. There are better.              Would I spend that kind of money? No. Even if I were stupidly rich. There are       better places to spend for better results.              Peter Wieck       Melrose Park, PA              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
