| Best budget bookshelf speakers for 3-600 dollars. I'd keep the Speakers and get the Genelec subwoofer or another subwoofer like it. For the type of music you listen too, you've had no bass and that is not good for the "balance" of playback signal. Going to be bright an thin with no bass extension... | |

| Anyone with a high-end home theater sans sub? "The people who tend to achieve the best sound are those who have significant experience in high-end two-channel audio."I wish this were the case, but often the experience rarely transfers.

| Wilson Audio Watt Puppy 7 vs. Kharma 3.2 T GregM"However the point about pricing applies all around; while the ceramic drivers alluded to are slightly more expensive than you note, the Focal "W" driver are similarly priced. For that matter, the standard ATC drivers are only slightly more... | |

| Anyone with a high-end home theater sans sub? Mmm, Look at this pile of wrongness, see what happens when I'm not around. A view askew for sure...gentlemen must focus power and be realistic, lots of rights spoken here with just enough wrong to make a mess.It's neat to have the .1 channel handl... | |

| Stand Alone DAC Vs. Anthem Dacs "too nominal to wory about"I think that is your answer.They maybe different but to say one is better would be difficult outside the context of your own personal tastes and system application. | |

| Trading Dynaudio Contour s5.4's for ??? Hey Ian,1st off, remove the MIT cables from the system, get some cheap $1ft speaker cables because you now have direct experience with how the MIT's can mess with a good speaker system. Your DALI experience also reflects how disasterous these cabl... | |
| Trading Dynaudio Contour s5.4's for ??? MadFloyd,Two things, the Dynaudios are pretty much the warm side, you may have a room problem like Direct sound being canceling by reflective sound.Also it would be out of character for the Dyn's to be thin in the midbass. What is the rest of your... | |
| Is solid state obsolete? Rowland uses IC's in his amps for the last 5-6 years, guess they're not as bad you guys think?and what does halcro use?You'd have to make a very convincing argument that the Halcro's aren't the most "ideal" amplifiers on the planet? They measure e... | |
