| Denon AVR-5700 setup menu MIA A possibility:Check the input button on your TV's remote or in the TV's setup menu to make sure the TV is set to display the S-Video input coming from your 5700 receiver. | |
| Best acoustic -natural instruments CD's Emmylou Harris, "Roses In The Snow". All acoustic with one of the most incredible lineups of pickers ever assembled. Very well recorded. | |
| "Miles Davis Story" on Bravo Available on DVD from CMV/Legacy, distributed by Sony Music Entertainment. Catalog/Reference number CVD 54040.I recently received it as a birthday gift, it is probably available from Amazon, Best Buy, etc.First saw it on the big screen a year ago ... | |
| Which Amp for B&W N803 I use N802's for the L & R front speakers and N804's for the L & R rear surrounds. Both sets are bi-amped w/ Denon AVR-5803 receiver to drive the bass portion of each speaker (170W), with a B&K Ref 200.7 (200W) to drive the tweeter/mid... | |
| Which 7 channel amp would sound better? Try the B&K Reference 200.7. 200W/channel w/balanced inputs. Outstanding! | |
| Who makes good quality bananas ? Stay away from Monster Cable bananas. IMHO they are cheap crap, can't handle anything larger than 16 gauge wire. | |

| How did you hear about Audiogon? Ironically enough, from a local A/V dealer. I was trying to sell a Denon HT receiver so that I could buy the latest upgraded receiver from him. He wanted to sell the new receiver so bad that he told me to go on Audiogon to sell the older one. Obvi... | |
| Best of dvd-audio and sacd discs? DVD-Audio:John McEuen & Jimmy Ibbotson, "Nitty Gritty Surround" on AIX Records. It's a "tribrid", although I will probably never use the DVD-Rom portion. It is two-sided, and there are almost too many choices of ways to play this thing (four),... | |
| Muddy Waters "Folk Singer" Haven't yet heard the SACD version of "Folk Singer", but the best one so far is the DAD version on Classic Records, IMHO. Full enjoyment of this DAD can only work if your DVD player will pass a non-downconverted 24/96 digital signal. If so, the qu... | |
| Any small monitors that dont sound thin and bright You didn't mention anything about price range, and some of the previous suggestions from other folks included speakers from the mid to higher priced range. My suggestion is the new B&W Nautilus 805 Signature. Improved electronics and incredibl... | |
| Bi-Amping B&W 802N - Who's doing it and with what? I am bi-amping my N802's in an unusual way and it works very well. I have inquired about this setup with several knowledgeable sources, including an email correspondence with B&W, who assured me that it was OK.The left and right speaker main o... |
