I don't know if your familiar with Magnepan speakers. Try the Magnepan MMG speakers. Magnepan officers a 60 day home trial- money back.  Once you hear them, you will not be returning them! They are priced at $650 if memory is correct. Don't let th...

Audiophiles should learn from people who created audio
@joecasey I agree that the Audio industry is doing just fine. Better sounding components and reasonable prices for great equipment. My point of that article was my belief about certain components as speaker WIRE, interconnects, and the money gougi... 
Audiophiles should learn from people who created audio
 Below is a quote from the late Gordon Holt: Audio as a hobby is dying, largely by its own hand. As far as the real world is concerned, high-end audio lost its credibility during the 1980s, when it flatly refused to submit to the kind of basic ho... 
Bryston or Pass Labs

Bryston or Pass Labs
The Pass amp is more than twice the cost of the Bryston. The Bryston is an 4B3 is an excellent amp.  I use the 6Bsst2 and it sounds outstanding with my Maggies. I haven't listened to the Pass amp so I wouldn't pass judgement. But , I believe you c...

Anyone experience the Magnepan Tri Center
just read all the discussions on the forum from 2014.sounds like it can be an expensive and discouraging proposition. Magnepan is not much help either. I had wanted to set it up for H T purposes only. I listen to my music in 2 channel and most tim... 
Anyone experience the Magnepan Tri Center
Just saw the pic of the tri center set up johnnyb, really appreciate it!  I just trying to figure out how to wire it up, interconnect wise. splitters? and such from the Pre Pro center channel, etc 
Anyone experience the Magnepan Tri Center
thanks for the post johnnyb.   seems like a pretty lame forum with no responses, unless no ones heard of the tri center.  that's probably it , they only listen in 2 channel.  thanks again 
Rate my system and chose the next upgrade
The advice others are giving you is valid and correct.  My statement  to you is; you spend $6,000 on your integrated amp and CD player, which is fine,  yet you only spend $2,000 for your speakers. The most important component in a system, IMO.  I ... 
Power Cords
To each his own and some may hear an audible difference but I believe The Knowledgeable Gordon Holt said it best: (IMO as it refers to cables)Audio as a hobby is dying, largely by its own hand. As far as the real world is concerned, high-end audio...
