Here's today's developments....1) 3/3 to Square D QO type subpanel.2) 12 dedicated runs to all the outlets (plastic gang boxes)3) To each outlet the black will be hot, the white, neutral and the red returned back to the subpanel and all the red wi...

Actually, it's a UX-3 SE. I'd have to put my 3 yr old on eBay (assuming someone would buy him) to afford the UX-1 limited edition.

Thanks to all of you for your insights and contributions. I ended up upgrading from the DV-50S to the UX-3 SE. I really did not see myself into the multichannel SACD, DVD-Audio or redbook modality. Perhaps one day I'll mod the UX-3 SE but I'll get... 
Anyone heard PMC's IB1?
I really cannot understand who PMC has not taken the US market by storm with such fine attributes in the IB1, IB2, and MB2 series. I guess marketing and UK product are their issues.

Frank, how was the UX-3 SE on video and audio compared to the others? 
Opinions and experiences on the Esoteric UX-3 SE
With all due respect, I am not interested in debating the DV-50S and 60 differences. Can we comment on the UX-3 SE firstly and then compare to the range of products from Esoteric. Thanks kindly for your generous time in posting.

Frank, how did the UX-3 SE sound stock? THanks. Dave 
Opinions and experiences on the Esoteric UX-3 SE
What's the bottleneck on the UX-3 SE and who is developing a fix, Esoteric or a mod company? Tx.

Good God, maybe I should look at the UX-3 or UX-1 instead of the DV-60. 2 channel is 75% vs. 25% for video. What is the price difference b/w the DV-60 and the UX-3 and UX-1? 
Esoteric DV-60
I am wanting a universal player and enjoy the DV-50S already. I wonder if the leap to the UX-3 or UX-1 would fit the bill. I don't think these units do multi channel audio either (not that I spend alot of time listening to this mode, but the optio...

I don't think there is multi channel audio with the X03. 
Your best picks for 2006 Best Speakers under 4K.
Try the PMC IB1 or IB2 with its 10" Nomex woofer. It's a lovely full range studio monitor and goes down to a useable 25 Hz. Check out www.pmcloudspeakers.com. I use then with a McIntosh MC402 amp and C2200 preamp

Speakers to mate with McIntosh gear
THank you everyone for your kind input. I was looking for input on a pair of medium floorstanders to mate with the current Macintosh design and that are secondly, not obtrusive and modern looking. Yes, some of your suggestions above certainly work...
