| New Home Depot concept coming to Audio? Home Depot Expo has been around for a while, expecially here in the southern U.S. But if you think about it, Home Depot is doing with stores what audio companies are doing with their R&D. Harmon International now owns Madrigal. Klipsch (god he... | |
| Krell KAV-250a/3 or Proceed HPA3 Honestly, I was set on getting the Proceed until I saw the deal for the Krell. I demo-ed an AMP 5, and it did for my speakers beyond even what my Bryston 4B-ST could do. It was amazing to me to hear more detail and bass control from an amp with ha... | |
| Philips SACD1000 vs Sony DVP-9000ES Sony SCD777 will kill both of them. I own a Sony DVP-9000ES and I love it, but for movies only. The SACD feature sounds great, CD sounds hideous, so for serious listening I still pull out the ol' Meridian 508.24. Get yourself a decent progressive ... | |
| B&W Nautilus Subwoofer to match N804s Excellent. There is a REL dealer near me. | |
| Help Need to improve front end . . . The Sony 777ES is supposedly a real gem if you can get one, and the SCD-1 even more so, even for regular CDs. Also check out Musical Fidelity A3CD (new), Arcam Alpha 9 (new), or a Meridian 506 (used). I own a Meridian 508.24, and can vouch for the... | |

| Help i'm lost... what cd player to buy ?? As for you question about what makes a good CD player good, there used to be a really cool write-up on the Mark Levinson site about what they find important about CD player technology. I know my next comment might spark some heated debate, but I'l... | |
| Under speaker metal SPIKES ...what is the point ? I think the bottom line is, try it, you'll like it. | |
| Help i'm lost... what cd player to buy ?? I own a Sony 9000ES and for CD it is not that great. Sounds really good with SACD. Does anyone know the name of the entry Musical Fidelity CD player? The one below the X-ray? Its the same player in a regular box. The thing lists for $995, and is s... | |

| Musical Fidelity's Nu-Vista 3D CD player anyone? Stereophile gave it Class "A". Never listened to it. Not even sure where to buy Musical Fidelity anymore now that they've axed AudioAdvisor.com. Are you interested solely in CD? Or are you looking at SACD or DVD-A as well? | |
| Interconnects with Meridian 508.24? I use Audioquest Lapis, RCA. Only reason I don't use balanced is because my pre-amp is CJ. | |
| what do you think about SONY's XBR direct view TVs? The Sony XBR direct view sets are some of the finest out there. That said, you might also try the Panasonic Tau line and Toshiba's widescreen sets for comparison. I would also check out the HDTV Ready projection sets if you have the room, especial... |
