| Solve this fun puzzle I won't argue that high priced wires might be out of place in a $900 system and that the money would be better spent on upgraded components. In most cases there won't be a high enough level of resolution to justify the buy. Adding in that the list... | |
| Solve this fun puzzle While Docroc speaks the truth, newbies do have to start somewhere and $900 ain't gonna buy diddly at a dealer. Even a Good Guys or Best Buy. So let me stick my neck out a bit. Given the limited budget you'll want to look for an integrated amp OR a... | |

| Room acoustics - yet again Thanks for sharing your experience, Subaruguru. My speakers are sealed cabinets and do well in a near-field setup. The software referenced above was only $50. For that much it won't have to do much to provide a decent ROI. Unlike you I have no WAF... | |
| VANDERSTEEN 2ce signatures? First, let me say that at this price point there are a number of players worth considering. All of them have their pluses and minuses, so picking one involves choosing what to trade off. While this is somewhat true at other price points, it is a v... | |
| Room acoustics - yet again This is a timely discussion as I'm about to move from a rectangular room to an irregular shaped one with a cathedral ceiling. The new space is easily twice the volume of the existing room. I also have a copy of CARA on order. My feeling is nothing... | |
