Too much Glare on my TV
The newest Panasonic plasmas have anti-glare screens. 
PC audio is it the best next thing????
Can any of you recommend a idiot's guide? I think it's time. 
Break in period
maybe my next audio investment should be an hour-meter! ;-) 
Best audio cabinet for people with pets
Look on Amazon for a product called Ssscat. It's a motion sensor on top of a spray devise. Works like a charm. 
Best speaker that you dont need a sub under 1.5k
Vandersteen 2Ce sigs. Hands down. 
Feedback on Audiogon
"cdm, he refunded your money and paid for shipping both ways. Wake up call? where can you do better than that?"Warrenh... I commend the seller for refunding my money w/shipping, BUT, (message to sellers, everywhere) --- DO NOT exagerate the condit... 
Standard Def PQ On Current Panasonic Plasmas?
I can tell you that I was completely pleased and a bit shocked at the quality of the standard def picture on my 50". That said, very old programing can look a bit fuzzy, but, come to think of it, it looked no better on my Sony CRT. My source is di... 
Arcam vs. NAD vs. Rotel AV Units
I was using the Marantz SR7300-OSE. 
Feedback on Audiogon
Could I be just as addicted to the Gon as I am to my audio sys? Sometimes I think so. I've learned so much here (thanks to all of you).Sorry to say that I just had my first borderline lousy experience with a seller. The item I received (speaker ca... 
Refurbished Marantz SR7500 quality?
I just replace my Marantz SR7300-OSE with the Arcam AVR350. While I'm fasinated by the Arcam's detail and imaging (in 2 channel), I miss the warmth and presence of my Marantz. I wish Marantz still did the OSE mod on today's receivers. 
HT Receiver or High end integrated for music??
My thanks to everyone who offered advice via this thread. I bought the Arcam AVR350 based on your input. I'm very pleased with it. (80% 2-channel; 20% HT) 
Arcam vs. NAD vs. Rotel AV Units
Arcam AVR350 also features Bass and Treble adjustments for all channels, in addition to bass management. I just received my AVR350 and completed the setup last Friday; very user-friendly. I'm most happy with the Arcam! 
Need a new AV receiver
I chose the Arcam AVR350, having auditioned the comparable Pioneer Elite, Denon, and Yamaha receivers. Yamaha 2700 was impressive, but the DETAIL of the AVR350 won me over. Dialogue throught the center sounded clear and PRESENT. Just my opinion. 
Ultimate Outlet vs. PS Audio P300
I just added a P300 to my system. It's an addition to my two existing HC Ultimate Outlets. I noticed a significant improvement in dynamics, background, and soundstage. Bass, in particular, is tighter and the notes are more defined. I'm already loo... 
Any system ever moved you emotionally like this?
Dmurfet, I have to agree with you regarding Damien Rice. "The Blowers Daughter" or "Cold Water" do it for me.
