I want one: Marantz CR201 CD player.

I'll definitely be selling this through the store once it's available through normal channels.

Savant Strikes Again:

• Octave Bands Turn 50!: "If it weren't for Young's dedication to this, we'd be discussing reverberation time in the 125 Hz band and, in the same report, discussing background noise in the 106 Hz band (or the 140 Hz band if you're a consultant in Europe). Whether you believe the standard bands are a good thing or a bad thing, we can thank Robert Young for the fact that they are standard."
• Noise in Hollywood (in reference to this upcoming movie): "With the possible exception of submarine movies (U-571 comes to mind, among others), Hollywood's portrayal of acoustic physics is notoriously less than mediocre." - I'm forced to agree, this isn't going to end well. But I suppose bad publicity is better than no publicity.
