| Which is Best loudspeaker in the $1000-1200 range? How about a clean, used pair of KEF 104/2s (bi-wire) w/KUBE? Those or some used PSB Goldis would be towards the top of my target list. | |
| Best processor that is excellent for 2 Ch music Another vote for an Arcam AVR300. I'm loving mine. It sounds great for two channel listening and I'm actually becoming sort of a HT buff now as well because it sounds great for my 5.1 also. Here's a good review on it:http://www.iar-80.com/page130.... | |
| Arcam AVR300/Sony 60XS video problem. Thanks again for the input everyone,What Merlocpm said worked. I was adjusting some wires one day and had the AVR300 unplugged so when I hooked everything back up, the menu was fine.Hope this helps with anyone else that experiences this problem.Th... | |
| Swans m200 or Powered studio monitors? I went through the same decision earlier. Basically, I was looking at three options for a den/nearfield setup:1. Swans M200s2. Bookshelf speakers (Von Schweikert VR 1 or Totem Model 1 Signatures were my main targets) and sub (probably an Onix Rock... | |
| Squeezbox 2 or 3? Thanks for the reply,Did the mods make a big difference and what were they? Again, I'll be going through the Arcam's DACs. I'm sure a new, beefier power supply will help. Also, since I'm using all of my Arcam's coax digital inputs, it looks like I... | |
| Squeezbox 2 or 3? Well, I found my answer on the Squeezebox differences for anyone who is wondering the same question:http://www.slimdevices.com/su_faq.htmlI like the form factor of the version 2 best. I'm limited on rack space and it will work best. Other then the... | |
| Speakers used under 1K I'd look for a clean, used pair of KEF 104/2's w/KUBE. The Goldi's and 2CE's would be on my list as well. I'm looking for a nice pair of 1993-94ish 104/2's myself actually. | |
| Panamax 4300EX or Monster Power Powerbar 1100? Thanks for the input,I did read that review/thread earlier but am looking for more detailed info on the PureAV PF30, Panamax 4300-EX and Monster Power 1100. I actually have the Monster Power 1100 hooked up to my system now and a new in box PureAV ... | |
| Arcam AVR300/Sony 60XS video problem. Thank you for your input,Yes, it only happens with the Arcam setup menu. Basically, I just need to find some 'vertical hold' adjustment. The next time I move the TV and everything else, I'll try a different cable. I've never had problems with that... | |
| Behringer DEQ 2496 Are the rack mounts removable? If so, is it 17" wide?Thanks. | |
| Is SACD dead? Probably a stupid question but what cables is everyone using for SACD? I can't use the digital connection on my Sony ES changer for SACD playback so I guess I'm going to need multiple RCA's? My receiver is an Arcam AVR300.Thanks for any help. | |
| Panamax 4300EX or Monster Power Powerbar 1100? I guess I better throw the Belkin PureAV AP20800 into the mix also. It looks like a contender in this range as well. | |
| Kimber D-60 question. Thanks for the replies.Any advantage in the larger, tapered RCAs for the long term? | |
| Vibrapod Isolators under my speakers? Thanks for the reply.Things sound good on the top end IMO. I have spikes that I used to use when the speakers sat directly on the carpeted floor that I have removed. The brass feet are flat of course. I'll get some small wood pieces and try that a... | |
| What A/V receiver to buy? Fairly wide $ range there. Don't forget the Arcam AVR300 (no HDMI) and the Rotel offerings. Those can be found in your range used, maybe new. |
