I was reading my Archeology Magazine and "Odeon" was a kind of roofed over theatre in ancient Greek days.

Still very pleased with my audio setup in my study. It's all so perfectly balanced. I know there are better components out there - every individual component can be improved on. It's just that they all play so well together.
