Coping in an Age of Uncertainty
You have stated in other threads that you have quit an investment in HI-FI. Buy a used Sony 777 or Sony SCD-1 for between $1500 to $2700. The music that is available on SACD sound much better than CD's. If SACD doesn't survive sell the SACD player...

Digital Smear???
I was starting to give-up hope on the human race with their lack of morals and values. I have a new sense of revived optimism in reading most of your responses. Anyone that would support what Albundy has done, please go to your parents and inform ... 
Seeking Opinions of Shuntata Hydra
I also have one on order. With this item being so new, you and I are going to be trailblazers on this product. The latest products that Shunyata has put out, have been excellent. Keep your fingers crossed. 
Dynaudio v Revel
I must be missing something. I auditioned the Dynaudios twice. I will admit that they have a large sound stage and have good detail, but the sound stage seemed to be 7 feet in back of the speaker. This drove me nuts. I asked the sales person if th... 
SACD vs. DVD-A and Audio DVDs
