| Something for Everyone in Super High Fidelity As the author of this thread, I would like to politely suggest that yes, we are also trying to identify GOOD RECORDINGS here.The tricky part is a diversified collection of well recorded GOOD MUSIC too, content which is intelligible and more likely... | |
| Pioneer Plasma for Video + DVD + PC ? Kennyt - thank you.Part of my frustration here is that the 1080 devices seem very consumer oriented, typically with cheapo speakers, amps and stands, compared the sleeker cleaner but 720 monitors for the "pro" market where both Pioneer and Panason... | |

| PMC vs. ATC This thread is quite fascinating. I discovered ATCs when looking for a well built, near field monitor with good MIDrange to use and to recommend for a PC based desktop application, as described in my latest virtual system thread.Having demo'ed a p... | |
| The Best Amp for the Price of Dirt For $169 bucks each, I will forgive them for no customer service.I spent more than that insuring and shipping my Mark Levinson amp back for repairs.In the meantime, my Behringer stuff sounds better and better, and seems to be working just fine. |
