Soooo many choices.
I for got to include "wireless" in that last post. 
Soooo many choices.
Wondering if the Stream Magic 6 might be what we should get. The streaming is a big plus, but I haven't found any reviews focusing on it's DAC quality for real listening. Looks like it maybe has all the inputs I'll need. 
Soooo many choices.
Willie, did you not go with the model above the Bifrost because of cost or another reason? 
Where does your user name come from?
My screen name comes from my preference in hunting. 
References available on real life room "tuning"?
I can't get much more solid footing unless I redesign the Paradigm M7 bases. They're sitting on a brick fireplace hearth, about as solid as can be.I think the room layout situation is horrible but it is what it has to be. Adding and moving things ... 
Most achingly-beautiful music
I only have one that stands out, in the sad category. Alison Kraus, Jacob's Dream. 
Oppo DV-981HD for $50 for 2ch?
Well I got to sit down and do some listening last night finally, with Joe Sample, Alison Kraus, and Pink Floyd(shouldn't have). This dvd player is a big improvement over the Denon. Less harsh and more details show through. I'd have been happy payi...

Finding different ways to change or eliminate the problems isn't the problem at the moment. Determining what and where to do is. I thought with the incredible amount of desire for better audio there would be a mass of literature, and maybe even so... 
Record companies provide downloads?
Jedinite24, depends on the label is half my point. I look for music I want to sample and buy and half of what I find I can't sample. "Lots" just doesn't cut it. If it's recorded, it should be available to sample and purchase on the spot. I'm not a... 
It's time for a new button on Audiogon
Br3098, too many of those points are slanted towards the buyer's favor. I've always felt the opposite was the way things should go. If the seller doesn't offer what I want for the price I want, so be it. But, I sure don't want to be pestered by so... 
It's time for a new button on Audiogon
Right when I first saw the sales layout I had roughly the same opinion as Viridian. My thought was to give the seller the option to remove the OFFER feature, leaving the prospective buyer the full price option. 
Oppo DV-981HD for $50 for 2ch?
It's in the cabinet. Doing some looking around I see one site that mentions it's retail at $1499? Somethings amiss, as he said he bought it new for about $350. Wierd. 
Who R U?
Ok, I'll play here. I'm a 54yr old, married, getting fat, machinist. My preference for quality sound started in my high school years but since I've never been well off I've never had the opportunity to do anything about it. Back in the day my best... 
NAD 2140 or Nakamichi 420, or else?
My posts are as proper English as I know to type it. If you can't read it there isn't anything I can do to help. And it's good enough that if you want to make it a problem I don't care for your help anyway. Since this original post we(wife and I) ... 
Cables more hype than value?
I've read a bunch of this thread, and not seen any mention of some kind of turn-around point as far as any indication on equipment capabilities vs being able to tell a difference. Any one have a thread in mind, or advice as far as to what level th...
