i am an audiophile - proud owner of a tivoli audio songbook.. by henry kloss.. recognized for sound production achievement by the Consumer Electronics hall of fame. the norweigian crown princess has one too cuz it's so good. sound production is so rich.. i'm just so happy with it cuz i don't need additional speakers to amplify sound from my laptop, or minidisc player anymore. i wanna get the minisystem for my parents for christmas but i accidentally sent them the email with that plan.. and my mom is totally against us spending so much on them. oh well. it would have been a good idea.. since she keeps using my cd player.. (but it's not like i need it either)..
