As part of our celebration of Sound & Vision’s 5th anniversary in the February/March 2004 issue, we offered a chance to win a System 5 speaker system from Paradigm. Readers were challenged to scan the cover of that issue and find all occurrences of the number “5” or the word “five,” any collection of five items, or any theme of five. The winning entry was selected at random. (For more on the Paradigm System 5, visit www.paradigm.com and go to Recommended Systems from the drop-down menu.)

Here is the complete list of “fives” on both the subscribers’ and newsstand versions of the cover.
