| Suggest your most desired MSRP $1,500-$3,000 Stand Mount for a Shootout. Wow the Proacs went up! Nope...looking at the stipulation, the D2s is more in line. Should be able to get these for around 3K. If not.... Change my recommendation to the Tannoy Autograph mini . | |

| Words and Sound If I hear the word "musical," as it applies to audio components one more time I'm gonna puke. What the F is that supposed to mean??? | |
| Do we really know what "Live" music sounds like? It was the very reason I got into selling the stuff. Played trumpet professionally and then got into audio. Always attempting to chase the windmill of producing the energy, dynamics and presence of live music. Close had to be "good enough". I th... | |

Seller gives rave reviews from previous reviewers to substantiate sale but the item is for sale anyway.If they were so enamored with the reviews, why sell especially after owning the piece for less... | |
| The Most "Analog" CD Player? Oh my word...I guess some posters never opened the op's link | |
| And yet, another speaker query Yes and no. Same environment. Guitar being reproduced and being reproduced to actuality are two different things in my mind.My system "seems" to reproduce guitar but that initial transient that makes or breaks timbres for me is not there. | |
| For ARC lovers, Problems? I sold Audio Research stuff for 30 yrs. Never had an underlying problem as you are describing. One thing that comes to mind is to measure the voltage coming out of your socket receptacle the unit is plugged into.See if it is truly 120 or something... | |
