Ken Fritz article
Anyone reading this post thread should probably visit the Ken Fritz virtual system. I spent some time reading through the comments mostly to read what he said.   His comments were very generous and detailed and took great interest communicating ... 
Upgraded my cables and they transformed my system!!!
Quality cables are important but keep in mind I think they all colour the sound and yeah you may notice a change but is the change for the better. I find audio quest extremely annoying with all their cherry Banana product names. I do have their H... 
B&W 805 D4: which 5 channel power amp should I go with (home theater): Parasound or Rotel
Mcintosh five channel amplifier would be perfect. I got one and it's plenty of power  
Why isn't better quality used gear being made available?
If they in good shape it sounds like a good deal. I would offer them $400 to rent them for two days with the balance owed if you keep them. Or just buy them outright. And if you do this I would see if you can look inside them to see if there's an... 
Ken Fritz article
What an incredibly awful article. What was the purpose of doing this article? I Recall the details of the auction of the system and was horrified. How could his family not enlist the support of the audio community to take great care and do what t...

Is toeing speakers a bad idea?
Gotta feel sorry for those people with big speakers that can't move them easily. I put an insulation ceiling acoustical tile beneath the speakers and I can move them around all over the place so much easier. It cost about six dollars for a square ...

McIntosh 2.1kw amplifier?
@laaudionut  Lovely system you have, the diffuser panels look really nice and I'm wondering since their coverage is limited do you notice a difference ? I'm debating whether I should install some diffuser panels. Maybe my scattered furniture thr... 
McIntosh 2.1kw amplifier?
@mrdecibel You are right I do post a lot because I too am a curious fella. I would like to think my posts have merit and are informationally of value. There are some incredibly bright people on this forum with invaluable things to offer. I make... 
McIntosh 2.1kw amplifier?
Actually I want to buy the Jeep with a McIntosh System and then I want to buy a dog.  Then I'll buy a beach house in Malibu.  I'll then think about buying you a birthday present.   
McIntosh 2.1kw amplifier?
I would love to know if anyone has experience with these mono blocks. If that’s provocative so be it. I do own 600 W mono blocks from McIntosh and I think they're great amplifiers. They do everything you need them to do very nicely. I do have an...
