| Wall Plates for speaker wire connections As these are just side and rear speakers, try the wall plates by Niles Audio. They are easy on the wallet and are of decent quality. | |
| Silver question... Silver does not equate to bright. Get a quality cable that sounds good in your system, plain and simple. Audition both silver and copper, cheap and expensive, as any of them may sound the best. | |
| Best CD Player under 4000 to replace Linn Genki Why not save up for the new MF Nu-vista CD player? According to Stereophile it's the last CD player you'll ever buy. That said, I still like my Meridian 508.24 with my N804s. | |
| What is your upgrade philosophy? Be ready to buy, but don't buy on impulse. I've followed this philosophy and those Wow! "deals" seem to come around the corner sooner than you would think. I've been researching amps for a year. I've bought two, and returned them both. I find that... | |
| advice before my head explodes... If music is more important to you, I would do the following: Purchase a set of good left/right and center speakers, as close to full range as possible. Spend as much as you can on the speakers, and buy a pair that both you and (if applicable) spou... | |
| No Stereophile review for Aragon Palladium II? No dealers remain in my area. Also, the new Klipsch site for Aragon lists only a snippit from one review. I want to see some actual graphs and bench numbers, such as Stereophile normally provides. I too feel that Stereophile misses out on some awe... | |
| Mcintosh Vs Proceed I am going to buy a Proceed HPA2. Their equipment is top notch. I already own their AVP audio/video processor, and have auditioned the AMP5 5 channel amp. It was excellent. They incorporate a lot of Mark Levinson technology in their amps and pream... | |
| Celebrities A/V systems - any interest? I think this has been done already. Check out the magazine "Audio Video Interiors". They showcase the audio system and home theater setups of homes of the rich and famous. Some of the homes are owned by non-famous wealthy people, others are owned ... | |
| Best Cd Player For Around 3000 I have some similar stuff, a Proceed AVP and B&W N804s. I use a Meridian 508.24 for CD. If you can find one used I highly recommend it. | |
| Problem with my Sony SCD-777ES I will echo my own response. Send it back to Sony. The player should be able to play 24/7 with no problems. :-) | |
| What speakers are replace Klipsch horns? I am familiar with the K-horns, as my father used to own a pair. The main problem you face is buying a speaker that can recreate the sheer volume of sound that the k-horns can create without spending alot. You were probably listening to the B&... | |
| Tweaks break-in period ? You said, "Maybe it is an energy related thing. Maybe after x number of hours of receiving vibrations (therefore energy) from the amp the cones get their final arrangement at the molecular level !?"My response is, not likely. Only during extreme t... | |
| Problem with my Sony SCD-777ES Considering that the 777ES is primarily an SACD player, and yours apparently has stopped, I would say this is a major problem. I think shipping it back is the best solution. In fact, if still under warranty you might insist on a new one from Sony.... | |
| Which amp is better... Powerpac 250 would be a cool option, but it is completely rack unfriendly, plus I don't have enough outlets (I like to plug the amp directly into the wall socket). I do agree with you about the lack of sound quality when it comes to movies, but I ... | |
| Newbie question.. Preamp and Sub I do use the Strata III for home theater, but for large rooms would recommend the Storm III. As it is I may upgrade to the Storm III, and my room is 15x20. For some real home theater punch try the REL Q201E. |
