Decent mains cable works as well as anything for speakers at budget end. The other day a guy in my local hifi shop tried telling me that 90...

Chruchill is a classic example of someone where no balanced discussion can take place. He is simply a hero in the eyes of most and they will simply not listen to the balanced historical view of him. It's seen as an attack, when it is a desire for historical balance and truth. I see it more as Churc...

The issue with "balance" is there to date has not been one. And if there is a refusal to have balance, the unbalanced side will at some stage demand via any means restitution.
