| What makes your Home Theater system "Exertfluffer":I too, happen to agree that going to a big local cineplex in order to see movies on the grandest of scales. Since I live in Washington, D. C., you would think that a city like Washington, a city with a lot of history to talk about w... | |
| VPI Scout or Michell Technodec? "Crazy4blues":To tell you the truth, I don't know. Neither one of them would be bad choices. I would guess that my personal choice would be depend on the rest of my system. And if I were to let my system be the deciding factor right now, I think i... | |
| Help with a complete vinyl setup about $2,500 Well "Dsiggia"......... I seem to also be in the same boat as you when it comes to getting into analog for just a song.

| What's your goal in system setup? "S23chang":If I "REALLY" do some deep soul searching and be honest about what type of audiophile I really am, I would say that I am a "Type I/Type II" hybrid. I love to listen to good music on a good system. I am one audiophile who happens to thin... | |
| Good 2 channel premap with HT bypass Well........ my Adcom GFP-750 also has a home theater pass thru, and I happen to think it's wonderful. If you want a solid-state model that has both active and passive capabilities, remote control, balanced inputs and outputs, and the capability t... | |

| Would like some help with what to buy? for 4-5k$ "Dakkon":I think that for your proposed $5K budget, unless you're going to go with someone like either Outlaw, or some used B&K gear, I think that you're not going to be able to get a separate pre/pro and matching power amplifier for $5K and s... | |

A Fantasy Question "Onhwy61":If money were not an object to me (and unless you are already fifthy rich.......... when has it become an object (???)), I would first buy me some prime real estate (meaning land) in an exclusive area of my town (and in my case, being th... | |

| To leave on or not to leave on, that is the ? "Vvrinc":I think that your friend is a LITTLE off base with this one. In order for your equipment to sound good all the time (whether you listen critically or not), it is imperitive that you leave your equipment on at least most of the time. This ... |
