| Silver plated copper Personally, I think it's hooey. :) The silver coating on the copper is barely there, but commands a major premium in price. Personally, at least for interconnects, I buy pure silver cables and make my own, and stick to pure copper for speakers. As... | |
| Silver plated copper Many topics in science use the word "theory." It does not mean unproven. It means there is an explanatory model. For instance, the "theory" of gravity. It is not up for ephemeral debate, nor is the "theory" of relativity or flight. While both the ... | |
| Bluetooth/USB/3.5mm connected integrated under $500? NAD makes a number of models. The 3020D for instance. | |
| Need input regarding integrated amp I have been really liking the NAD 3020 D in the bedroom. It is rather modest in power, but highly recommend it as a budget integrated. They make larger models. Check the inputs carefully as some have changed between versions and models. | |

| Can I connect 2 sources to the HDMI input in Oppo 203 Yes, but why make it so complicated? Get an Anthem HT receiver. Relatively inexpensive, especially if you go for older series. Best,E | |

| Yamaha a-s2100 v Luxman L550AX v Accuphase E350 Hey @donvitoDo you have any idea about the sound? Speaker pairing recommendations? Best,E | |
| Can old ceiling speakers be used as Atmos Fronts? Yes, sure. You aren't going to be married to the choice, if they don't work out, get something else. Best,E | |
| Is there an actual difference between AB and A/AB ? Perhaps audio manufactures should drop the term AB They have, I think. They say something like "high bias AB" or "A/AB"The curmudgeon in me wants them to just stick to calling it AB. :) Let's have a fight over it! ;) Best,E | |
| Furman Elite 15 PFi - how to tell if everything is working @toolbox149I also want to point out that just because something is working doesn't mean it has a benefit for you right now. Like the fabulous surge protection. You really won't benefit from it until you have a surge. The Furman SMP and LiFT are al... | |
| Separate subs for bass management & LFE in a surround set up I think you have no idea how hard it is to integrate a sub well yet. Do that for 1 or 2 subs first. :) Actually if you have that kind of cash, hire a pro. Best,E | |
