DK Design Review
I'm not sure it was so positive. 
Why do no audio enthusiasts use McIntosh?
Don't know what your missin' Tim. :) 
DK Design Review
I'd have to say that most owners are probably listening to music and not writing about the DK.Keep telling yourself that. 
Queen on American Idol
Simply unbelieveable that Chris is out; he is by FAR better than anyone they have ever had on the show--always consistent. 
B&W Nautilus 800 vs 802D
MrChips, a couple things..1) I had never heard before that the N800 and the Signature 800 are the same, except the finish, contrary to the other Signature Series vs. Nautilus, please forgive me if this is the case. 2) I find your recent comments m... 
B&W Nautilus 800 vs 802D
I hate getting into these discussions, BUT, MrChips, your information is incorrect. The new D series is not simply a tweeter change, and the diamond tweeter in another league over the N tweeter. The Signature series is not the same as the N series... 
B&W Nautilus 800 vs 802D
From the comments I have read, I would take the 802D's over the N800's, without hesitation. 
Queen on American Idol
This can be a "popularity" contest as much as a singing contest, hence why Ace is still there, the girls like him. I expect Kelly to be one of the last for the same reason, athough she has more talent IMO and could do some Country. I hope Chris st... 
Dion's back
Thanks for the heads up, I will look for it. I picked up a CD of his last year, called "New Masters" where rerecorded some of his hits; I enjoy it but there are spots that could of been better IMO. 
Upgrading my system? Levinson to. . . . ?
1. Keep the system as is. I love the sound as is, but think I would benefit from some better amplification.There is always better, if you love the sound as is, sit back, relax and keep on enjoying!I may not be the best to be giving advice about no... 
Stereo stand with adjustable shelves
Thanks for all the suggestions. I have looked at all of them and I like the function of the Deluxe JustaRack the best, it looks to do isolation as well as hold your gear, but as Mr. Fries says, unfortunately they only come in black. I really like ... 
Silver vs Copper cables
I must not speak (type) clearly. From the outset my point has been this, I don't believe copper or silver cables need to be put in their own "box", ie. silver does this and copper does that. John, you are accusing me of things that are just not tr... 
Silver vs Copper cables
I guess I am foolish and silly. (For the record, I don't care what the make up is, simply the results.) 
Silver vs Copper cables
When we say manufacturer's top cables are usually silver I wonder if we're confusing cost with quality.I figured someone may suggest this. Let me clarify my statement by saying it is usually marketed as their best cable. 
Silver vs Copper cables
Hi John,I understand your points, and we may not be to far apart. I do not think it is right to say silver cables are bright or cause brightness; some may be but that's more of a design issue IMO. It seems to me that Nordost cables are known to be...
