| BMG CD's ARE worse I finally got two identical CD's, one is BMG version, brand new right out of the case; of Steve Winwood's "Arc of a Diver". The other is from the library.The library CD had minor scratches all over it. It also had two thin metal detection strips t... | |
| Suggestions for a DAC I found Joe_b's link:EVS link | |
| What do you think of rogue with B & W 805N? Does it have enough power? I would want at least 80 watts but 120 wpc / high current capability would be better - B&W seems to like / need high current to come to life. | |
| What's better 100w class a or 200w class ab? Interesting point Audiomax. Too bad more companies don't print max current. Creek would advertise peak current of over 30 amps I think but never in their specs. I can subjectively agree with Drrdiamond about Krell as their integrated is punchy.Mus... | |
| Have You Ever Put Your Golden Ears to the Test?? FWIW- I read people hear more false positives (they think they hear a difference but there is none - ie. wire not changed) than true positives (they really do hear a difference). | |
| Looking for used cd or dvd player for my system Marantz DR-6050 $379http://www.accessories4less.comThese are refurbished. | |
| Suggestion for bedroom speakers Monitor Audio Bronze, Ascend Acoustic CBM-170 (?), GR-Research Paradox 1 or AV-1, B&W 601s3, Acoustic Energy EVO 1, Sound Dynamics RTS-3 (?) would be my list. | |

| What's better 100w class a or 200w class ab? This link may help - has description of class "A" and "B" amps.click here | |
| Monitor Audio GR 10 What are your tastes? B&W => M20 => G10 in order of forward / bright / crisp /clean sound would be how I describe.Could also try Spendor and ATC active 10's which are the warmer English sound but still detailed and natural. JM Reynaud wo... | |
| I can't really hear a big difference Dennis, have you tried Meridian 508.24 or Cary 303/100? | |
| Do you own/have you heard the new Thiel 1.6? Jim Thiel gave IN to public demand on brightness without giving AWAY what makes Thiel speakers Thiels - my opinion. If only he could do this with his 2.3's and maybe I'd switch from B&W.I heard 1.6 with Creek CD53 and 5350 SE and sound was ver... | |
| Talon Khorus x or B&W 802 I put very little value in a review that says a product has no faults. Either the person won't own up or has a hearing problem. | |
| Outdoor antenna setup Get a grounding block from Radio Shack ($1.99 or so). The grounding block mounts to the house and is grounded to a ground wire. You cut the co-ax and mount a connector and screw the co-ax into each side of the grounding block.Prevents lightening f... | |
