| Where to take system from here? System looks pretty solid as-is. What do you feel is lacking? I adore your Thiels. Do the Lamms give them enough juice? Have you done anything regarding room treatment? | |
| Audio Research LS 2 prices An LS-2 was in one of the finest systems I ever heard. I've only heard one other system (which I was luck enough to own) that sounded as remarkable (but in a different way).You don't need to spend giant dollars if what you're after is phenomenal s... | |
| System problem Don't forget your cables (IC & speaker). I bumped my XLR IC turning my (very small) phono preamp off/on. Must have done this a few times and cracked the solder connection in the IC. System started to sound funny and I finally tracked it to ICs... | |

| Interesting HDMI Problem: OPPO UDP-205 @esmurrell - Look on your TV remote for a button called "Pic Off" (mine is on the bottom-right corner). The TV remains on but the picture is cut off. | |

| A/V Receiver Recommendation for a newby. My 12 year old Onkyo HT receiver has better "SQ" than any movie theater I've ever been to. Alas, I've just learned that isn't good enough. | |

If all of your equipment is unplugged, you obviously ... | |
| GREAT BARGAIN BUYS YOU'VE MADE OR KNOW OF Speaking of bargains, there's a Tice Micro Block power conditioner on ebay for $98! I paid $650 in the 90's. I've trying to find a reason to purchase but still have my original. This would be a great power supply for a CD/DAC or turntable. Basical... | |
| GREAT BARGAIN BUYS YOU'VE MADE OR KNOW OF Once bought an Empire 698 demo turntable for $50 at a going-out-of-business sale. Nice cabinet! | |
| Loudness - Why has the industry stopped producing amplifiers with this feature any longer? What's wrong with headphones? I won't use them because they sound so good I get carried away (and lose hearing in the process). Consider them if you've more self control. | |
