    Meet Nicco: The audiophile kitty

    Nicco has been my primary listening partner for the past 6 or so years. He seems to have a preference for jazz and has been known to steal my seat in the sweet spot when Miles Davis is playing...

    When I start talking about cats, that's typically when my wife rolls her eyes and says something snarky why "Why do you love your cat more than you love me?" This is Ginger, and to be honest we probably are a little too attached to each other.

    There's a pair of speakers in there Fred that you'll probably recognize

    Nice cat(s). I have four, one from the shelter, three ferals I caught out back. However, only The Rugrat is a true audiophile, as he likes a little beer with his tunes.
