Spectron Musician III Signature vs VTL Siegfried?
Hi Dob: I too invested in the Spectron Signature, as a replacement for my ASL Hurricanes. The "Toob" Hurricanes are great amps for music, however they lack the depth and dynamics necessary for good Cinema, and I enjoy both. Even though music is my... 
Review: Spectron Musician III Signature Edition Amplifier
Hello All: Taking Soda's advice, I invested in the new Spectron Signature Amp, and I just can't say enough about it. I have never heard a midrange so Golden! The highs are crystaline and without grain. The bass is awesome. Not only is it deeply ex... 
Von Schweikert VR4-Mklll Vs Def Tech 7000SC
Hi OZ: From the photo you placed, we have mirror image speakers. Unfortunately mine are not the HSE models, however since adding a Plinius 300 watt Amp, the magic is there in abundance. Thank you for your feedback. I had a small pair of DT years a... 
Bad Disc Arcam DV29
Hi Higgins: Thanks for the input. I'll try cleaning later today. I did use a "Disc Lens Cleaner" to no avail, however they seem pretty cheesy. The sonics and video are steller, head and shoulders above my previous Marantz. It has HDMI output, whic... 
Acram dv29?
Hi: I am an owner of the Arcam DV-29. It is head and shoulders above the prior Marantz units I have owned. Both the video and audio are excellent. There is one major problem, however, It won't play about 1/2 of my discs. It shows an error of "bad ...

Theta Gen Va Mods
In my humble opinion mods are simply a way of depleting your wallet. Example: I recently had need to take apart my highly moded Denon DVD (Underwood Wally), to repair a bad solder joint. What did I find? All that expensive modification boils down ... 
How much does your system retail for?
This is my second system. In the first I had about $4000 invested. Since Sept 2002 I have spent a little over $17,000. It doesn't seem possible! In fact I am certain I probably forgot a few tweaks. Oh well!! Never stop upgrading! All this Audiophi... 
Two Amps One Pair Of Speakers
Never, I repeat, never hook up one set of speakers, or one speaker for that matter,to more than one amplifier! It is very dangerous. You will blow out the amps. Theoretically it could be done with an A-B switch, however I don't recommend it. 51der... 
Speaker Decision Help--Please
Hi There: Regarding the speakers I would recommend the B&w's. The 803 is excellent. It has wonderful clarity and suffecient bass grunt that will be first rate in both home theater and music. The B&W's present a very deep and wide soundstag...
