[DM-MUG] Audiofile question

[Jon Engelhardt]

Stopped by Audio Video Logic on Monday and picked up the Zeppelin for our 4 season room.  The sound is very good and we are both pleased, plus the unique look of the system is striking.  Gone (stored) are my old ADS speakers and amp, I still love those speakers and if I ever have a home office (very doubtful) I would set those speakers up once again.
