My New Creek 4330...
How you say, "cool as a cucumber?" Really, David, weeks on end without any problems whatsoever.

I don't believe it has anything to do with AC quality. That would be a sales pitch and a load of horse crap. Charlie 
My New Creek 4330...
My 4330R does that, too. I never turn it off unless a thunderstorm is coming and I have the presence of mind to protect it. It is a very musical "pop," I should add. My new Creek 5350SE does not do the "pop" thing. 
Members: start a music review section?
I volunteer to be the token redneck reviewer here at AudiogoN. [:)] The past recommendations by members of this site have been the single most helpful experience, for me, in my pursuit of new music. I would also like to share what I find to be enj... 
What Are Your Audio Morals?
Leafs, I fear I was not specific enough. I meant to refer to those who intentionally take advantage of a local dealer's overhead, knowing full well they have NO intention but to buy from the cheapest source, (and they know that it will not be the ... 
What Are Your Audio Morals?
You have no morals if you demo at a dealer knowing that you will, or likely will, purchase elsewhere. (And by "demo" I mean that you are taking up the dealer's time with an extended "sit down" or home demo.)

What integrated with remote and phones
I second the nomination of the Creek 5350SE. I love mine, as well. Buy one and be done, my friend. 
"sandwich" platform for amps
Hey Larryr, I use two 14" blocks of heavy ceramic tile to sandwich some Vibrapods. The lower shelf is bolted to the too shallow wooden shelf of a floor to ceiling bookshelf I am forced to use. Also, check the Mapleshade website. The have a foam an... 
Do studio monitors work well at home?
Hello Imstar. I use a wonderful monitor that has it's ancestry as a BBC studio monitor. It is the Harbeth Compact 7ES. It is being used in both small and large rooms with equal success, and is not really very "compact" with an 8 inch driver. Harbe... 
Trelja in New York
May I repeat my question? How many rooms had no or poor acoustic treatment? BTW, thanks for the thorough post.And Joe, thanks for bailing out my 5350SE. I have been crying for a couple of days now, but I have just unpacked her and put her back in ... 
Trelja in New York
Joe, (and other attendees,) how many rooms were acoustically treated? Other than obvious synergy problems, what do you think the common mistakes were from room to room? What would you have loved to have told them to make it better, if you were the... 
Lets fight Part2
Doug, that's what I was told when I complained as well. Something to the effect that they have more traffic now. All I see is these silent idiots that love to dish out negative votes for no reason. I guess on a positive note, maybe this is keeping... 
One Song That Still Causes...
Taps. An instant reminder of the young men who have fallen and given everything there is to give. It never fails to make the hair stand up on the back of my neck and a stuggle to fight back a tear. There, but for the Grace of God, go I.God Bless T...
