He told me his speaker contributed at least 80% of the sound because amps sound virtually identical at the 1 watt used to run the high efficiency horns. Meaning, the lower power, the less effect amp qualities can h... | |
| any new Quad 11/12L owners? Glad you like them. They are very dynamic and clear. WhatHiFi reviewed an all Quad system and noted that Quad could be bright depending on the recording. Just a caution. | |
| A music system to operate to.... I like the Aiwa with white bass driver sold at Target for $150-$170. Has a 3 cd changer, tuner, sounds really good but doesn't play really loud. | |
| $2000 CDP for Rock Music???? Meridian 508.20 or 24? As mentioned,Cal also reviewed well for rock music by Stereophile. They may be out of business now. | |

| What's you opinion? Subwoofer shouldn't sound like anything. Meaning if you hear it, it's probably set too high or wrong room placement.HSU has a VTU-2 (?) about $500 or REL are both good. | |
| Pass Labs Aleph Amps & B&W Nautilus Speakers Geesh Ernie, give it a break. | |
| DVD-A through 2 channel setup experiment www.edn.com published a very good scientific article in their January 9, 2003 magazine proving that DVD-audio technology is superior to SACD. Implementation is another thing. | |
