| Has anyone write audio review on HIFIADVISOR? Fun idea, as long as the grains of sand slip through the hour glass might as well pontificate on another site as well. Perhaps one may spread the word on gear that flies under the radar for some. Giving a real person view point. | |
| Amps - New vs. Used First I would look for a high quality amp that you may really want, new or used. At times you may be able to find new or demo amps at tremendous savings. Full warranty and no hidden issues. I would not assume used to always be the most cost effect... | |

| Sick and tired of hum-please read Sounds like you have tried most things. Might there be any non audio electrical items in room such as Fluorescent lighting. And outside of repositioning your gear, which you may have done already, play it louder. Alas...the price of a system you l... | |
| McIntosh D100 Digital preamp review Great that Mc has come out with a DAC that at least for them is a real value. For those who have Mc components without a DAC and want to keep their system McPure this is a dream come true. This would really make me want to keep my MA6600 for many ... | |

| How do you amp your system? HT set up via my trusty Acurus ACT 3 processor and ACT 5 amplifier. The ACT 5 powers all five channels with 200 watts. The sub is a powered Velodyne.Should I not have equal power for all speakers I would then have my highest quality to power prima... | |
| Best bookshelf speakers??? Jedinite24...Timing is everything. Wish I could have moved on them when I first came across the deal. | |
| What are the "new" brands in amps and pre-amps Rogers amps, reading up on them. Tube based unit. They have a lifetime warranty, which is transferable as well. Made here in the USA as well. When I recover from my kids being in school...I can't wait. | |
| Best bookshelf speakers??? Audioadvisor as PSB GB-1 on a great clearance price. Front ported, should do well in a bookshelf. I have not heard them however, but I would try them if I could. Boy I can't wait for my kids school loans to be paid. :] | |
| Looking for a very good integrated solid state amp For your budget, give the Marantz PM11S2,S3 if you can get a great deal. | |

| 2013 Wish List Instead of the mac mini, now considering the Olive One to form the basis of a music server. Hoping for the advantage of not having to tie up my computer as much and lower overall cost. | |
| Opinions on 4 Integrateds As you like the Marantz PM15S2LE , consider the Marantz PM8004. Much like the 15S2LE, but with a list price of $1000.00. This unit is built solid and sounds sweet. Current means more than watts alone, and will drive your speakers well. Comes with ... |
