Plinius 9200 and The new Nola Contender
Agree all the way with Cmalak. By all means, take your 9200 and (your source) to the dealer and connect them to the speakers. This is better than nothing. 
Could this be the next Frank Sinatra?
Phaelon, " maybe Jim Nabors" that's priceless. 
Band with highest success/talent ratio?
Too many to name but I agree about the Jonas Brothers. I have a 7 year old or I would not know who they are. They are w/o talent.

Is it possible to get Hi-end sound ??
Tan43 I didn't go nearly as far with you on the fish, but I had several tanks and backed off to one. It became too much work and not fun. Got into audio and spent more than I needed to. Still spending...

Branislav, I feel your pain... I'm right there with you in the same place.

I enjoy the music listening to my boston acoustics computer speakers. When it comes to my main setup in the family room, I just can't seem to get to the point where I'm simply enjoying the music. But I don't feel I'm jaded. 
Why Don't We See More High Current Electronics?
I appreciate the discussion of amplifier topology and performance. It's informative for electronics novices (like me). An amp with high input impedance is important not "dry" or "lean" lively with bass weight and clarity. An issue is my Cary SLP 0...
