| And the Winner Is... I wish the video provided some background as to who this man is (apparently, he is the father of the other guy who, I believe, is someone who makes speakers "Fritz"?). I would love to have his room... | |
| Help choosing an power amplifier I ALWAYS suggest a BAT VK-300SE or the update VK-3000SE. The 3000SE is preferable only because it's hard to tell how old a 300SE might be. You can call BAT and give them the serial number to get date-of-manufacture.These integrateds are designed b... | |
| Hi end audio equip sounds better today than in decades past due to tech - T/F @alexberger - How do you account for the emergence of this Thermal Compression? How was it avoided in the "old days". This is fascinating... | |
| BW 800 D3 Floor Speakers (correction: Two 255SE not 655SE) It dawned on me that the reason some favor mono's is to have a short run of speaker cable. In this case, I'd recommend two BAT VK-255SE in mono configuration. This must be done at the factory. Surprisingly, it ... | |

| Need help: turntable market in the $1500-$2000 range is overwhelming A while back I owned a mid-level Music Hall (7.1?) and a lead clip broke off.

| Hi end audio equip sounds better today than in decades past due to tech - T/F Speaker used to be the "weakest link" (talking about dynamic speakers). Today, companies like B&W and Magico are producing products that are really special. I just wish J. Gordon Holt and H.P., RIP, could have heard them. | |
| Recommendations for a new Basement home theater. If starting from scratch, i.e. construction in your future, I'd go wireless for surrounds and rear speakers. This means running electrical outlets where speakers will be for a tidy look. Also, as home theater chairs are usually electric, put some ... | |
