| All about the bass LiluATCs work very well in their active line--which include built-in amplification. You should look at the new 16As at 4 grand, or their proven ATC20A, which is 8 grand. The 16A came out two months ago and are a great bargin, since you also get a ... | |
| Best speakers for 3 cord rock and roll ATC 11s. Your beloved rock was probably mixed on a pair of ATCs. In-house choice of 1,000 recording studios for 30 years. Sony Studios, Pink Floyd, Tom Petty and Rolling Stones all use a more sophisticated studio version of these. They come in act... | |
| Considering going Vinyl--Please talk me out of it Harder to roll a fat one on a CD jewel box versus a lp. There was a lot of proven research on the subject in the mid-70s. Sadly, it is a little foggy in my mind.But seriously, CDs and MP3s work great if you are mobile, on the road commuting or air... | |

| Harbeth P3Es2 or Spendor S3/5 Both Harbeth and Spendor will sound great with the VTL. I would not recommend the ATCs, which favor the purer sound of solid state over tubes due to their neutral design. You might also want to audition Zucable speakers. The Zu Tones and Druids ar... | |
| How do you download your LP's to your computer? Pro-ject sells a turntable with a USB Port that will download into a PC. Check out their website. | |
| Harbeth P3Es2 or Spendor S3/5 They are both great speakers from the UK made by companies where there is very little turnover in their personnel. I can recommend a great dealer I was referred through audiogoners named Gene Rubin Audio. He has great experience matching these com... | |

| New or used??? Nice sounding gear from the UK that has great synergy is the Rega Apollo CD player, Rega P3-24 turntable, integrated amps by either RFD or Roksan (I have the Kandy), and ATC 11 or 19 speakers or B & W 803s. NAD makes great amps, the 372 and M3... | |
| New or used??? Figure that you will lose 50% value the day you pick something out new or used. Electronics has the worst depreciation of any consumer category and anyone who tells you otherwise is lying.Additionally, the aftermarket is fueled by tweakers who are... | |

| Audio Engine 5, need opinions.... I have owned Audioengines for a year. You get 45 watts per speaker with the Audioengines 5. It is a nice balanced soundstage with nice mids. Works well with Apple products like the iPod or Airport Express.Alternatively, you should check out Blue S... |
