| EMM Labs new XSD1 single box player This is one of those things that I have complained to EMM about but they do not seem to care; ideally, they should not only list the version number on their site with date but also the change history. At this point, the only way to determine wheth... | |
| dCS Puccini vs EMM labs XSD1 ime, the Puccini falls noticeably short compared to the XDS1 on RBCD (no opinion on SACD as that's irrelevant to me - software selection too limited).Also, make sure you are using the 102_002 firmware (November 2009) on the XDS1 as anything before... | |
| Mark Levinson 380S or 320S ? I'm not quite sure what unit you listened to but if you think the 320S was lacking on the low end, you need to reexamine your system because you have problems elsewhere. | |
| Mark Levinson 380S or 320S ? 320S hands down. | |

| What is the best bang for the buck 65 incher?.... The XBR8 is a nice set but the black crush is unacceptable. The new V10 Panasonics are markedly superior, deep blacks and all the detail is preserved. btw, you shouldn't determine television superiority in a store.In any case, they don't make the ... | |

| Anyone heard the new Focal Grande Utopia EM? That move is questionable at best. While the Scala may be slightly better than the Alto, the improvement surely isn't worth the 15 grand or so it will cost to make that move; that money would almost certainly be better spent elsewhere in the syste... | |
| Anybody heard or know anything about Olive 4HD? While it looks interesting, it may be a better idea to get something that isn't so proprietary. But at the pricepoint and the form factor it is likely to be winner. | |

| anyone had a listen to the b w 803d's Why in anyone's right mind would you pair a $9K speaker with a receiver? You simply cannot make a credible determination regarding the performance of any audio component unless the supporting components are suitable. | |
| Linn Abandons CD Players When a company that has produced a CD player that mattered in the last two to three years decides to give up CD players then that will be news. Linn hasn't had anything that was worthing caring about CD wise since the CD12 10 years ago. This is si... | |
| Wadia 581 SE vs 781 If you are really not in a hurry considering it has been canceled and Wadia will no longer comment on if and when the 981 project will be revived. It seems that they are more interested in their new 1 series units which, to be fair, is probably ke... |
