PC Audio and the Behringer DEQ 2496
Bogartg1In my case, I use it as a decent, but cheap and versatile device to switch between cable HDTV and PC based sound on my desktop.Its not state of the art, but surprisingly good, and fun.If I were trying to build a single use, dedicated 2 cha... 
The Magic of Brazilian Music
Further to Brazilian music, can anyone please explain or recommend either of the following:1) "Acoustic" Brazilian music and/or 2) "Axe" music?I am trying to find representative artists to create Pandora stations.Thank you 
amp for maggies 3.6
Is it possible that the culprit is not the amplifier, but your taste in "dance/trance club music"? 
Amplifier for Magnepan 20.1s
Bryston monoblocks and Parasound are often recommended for Magnepans.Other than biamping as Teajay mentions above, it seems the consensus is that more power yields a bigger benefit than incremental increases in quality.I have always wondered about...

Ua100kThank you for all the information - this is very helpful.Is there any consensus on "high end" USB cables or glass fiber cables? Or have the Siltechs of the world not gotten involved yet?

Are audiophile speakers turn on for single women?
If you live in a drop ceilinged basement with a big TV, leather like vinyl furniture, eat a lot of processed food, and do your laundry once every few months, I don't think most single women will be impressed that you have say, Zu Dominance loudspe... 
Best Aesthetic Vintage Black Receiver or Tuner
That's easy - a Yamaha T-2.Far more beautiful than any of the candidates mentioned above, in my opinion. Also, it is an excellent tuner.Difficult to find in perfect shape, however, and the aluminum case is easily clouded or scuffed.Good luck.
