| Happiness achieved sjtm - I'm in the same boat you are; but starting in shallower water. But at least my ancient Oppo plays DVD-As. | |
| Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics? Isolation is vital! Mostly from the wife and kids.But seriously, folks. I am lucky that my speakers are sitting on concrete. They sound best that way. I've tried a few intermediaries. Wood platforms, steel points, stiff felt. None helped, most mad... | |
