Re: Richard Dunn

Very sad to read about Richard today. My condolences are with his family.

I should be able to make the 5th; just a couple of ICs to contribute, unless a cd player would be useful?

It's odd because I don't have that expectation from my car audio for example. I look forward to additional bake offs to further my exposure and rewire/remove that expectation. ...
