| Parasound P/LD-2000 Daltonlanny, I surely don't appreciate being called a liar and imagine you don't either. I meant no disrespect, but my post stands. I have nothing to add at this time other than to say if and when such a unit is ready to be introduced Parasound wi... | |
| Acrolink in-wall cabling? I appreciate and agree with several of the posts in this thread, particularly those by Hooper and Michaelhwolff. We're all after the best sound we can get to suit our tastes and budgets, and even when the budget is unlimited one has to ask himself... | |

| Beveridge speakers-does anyone still use them? To add to Viridian's post:Beveridges don't appear all that often on the used market, although they can be found. I would characterize the sound of the original model 2 as very polite, which the 2SW family exhibits to a lesser degree, however integ... | |
| McIntosh 501 or 602 for Magnepan 20.1 Peter: have you actually *heard* the JC-1s (broken in, please!) driving the MG20.1s, either single- or bi-amped? Or is your comment about them being "too much", i.e. too powerful, pure speculation? The same goes for the Classe Omegas' power being ... | |
| Parasound JC1's vs. Sim Audio W10 Audio4ever, you might want to check your facts. JC-1s have both balanced and single ended inputs, as can be verified on the Parasound website. It sounds as though you haven't looked 'under the hood' of the JC-1s to see the premium parts throughout... | |
