| Best new/demo/used value for $7.5K range Jtee,1. B&W Nautilus 802's. I may get flamed here, but I have never cared for the B&W sound. Tweeter sounds a little too metallic sounding for my tastes. May not match up too well with Levinson amp either.2.JM Labs Mezzo Utopia. I love Foc... | |

| Musical Fidelity Tri-Vista Owners Questions??? I own the Tri-Vista and I could tell the unit was going to be a keeper right out of the box. It did sound a little hard in the High Frequencies.

| Review: Conrad Johnson Premier-17LS Tube preamp Great article. I too have become addicted to C-J products. I have moved up the chain steadily as well. I have owned, MV-75, Premier 5's, Premier 12's. I have owned the PV-10AL, PV-12L, PFR, Premier 16LS and finally the combo that I have now. The A... | |

| Which would you buy? Hello,This really depends on what you are going to do with the processor. Do you have a preamp or is this unit going to be a preamp for 2 channel as well as Home theatre. If this is the only preamp you will be utilizing then I would buy the EAD. I... | |
