| How much power/channel for multi-channel amp? I can tell you that going from 100wpc to a 250wpc higher current design with my 88db speakers in a 14 x 24 room has turned out to be an improvement, but this was mostly due to the higher quality of the bigger amp.I would go with a minimum of 100wp... | |
| Philips 1000 vs 963 for 2 channel. Which one ?

| SACD 2...for those who have not heard Another concern is wiil the new copy protection built into the new hardware affect sonics? | |
| SACD 2...for those who have not heard No, you have it backwards, without audiophiles, sacd would not exsist.Average joes are still not buying sacd's, and putting a picture on the screen is not about to change that.If you need further convincing, check the dvd-a sales.My thoughts are, ... | |

Never heard of hi def audio.....are you sure about that?I have heard that eventually there could be dsd encoded 5.1 soundtracks, but until someone actually trys this, its just a pipedream.As far as Sacd/dvd-a goes, i currently support Sacd, but ne... | |
