Where to go with Direct TV satellite feed?

Feedback system flawed?

If there was Nobel prize in audio...
In audio mfg, everything is about sales/profits. Not sure how "Nobel-Prize" fits in. We may love our hobby,or certian products. A SS kind of guy probably couldn't care about " what tube inovations". I have owned AA and still have some MSB items. R...

What is a good amp that cost no more then 3500.00
Yo, Dzz; You got to say what speakers you got./ and do you plan to keep them? How big is the room/ how loud do you listen? Is the rest of your equipment in keeping with a 7/8k amp? So many speakers "need" SS and there are many that don't. There ar...

no difference between 4k meridian & 400 DVD?
Funny; I just got a second run of AP speaker wire. My main reason was to install said wires on a different amp. I already had AP 9's w/ copper jumpers in the main system. Lazy guy that I am this was the eaisier place to install the new/used wires....
