jeff rowland 501 & 201 vs. bel canto ref1000
How much of a difference is there really between the ref1000 MKI and MKII? The price is up 1k each form the original. 
Gallo ref 3.1 users please chime in
Great feedback. One thing I wonder about tube amps, (I never used any) will they still have the detail and pack the punch in the low end like SS? What kind of power will be needed to move the gallo's well, with a tube amp?

Bel Ref1000s OR M300s + Gallo refrence S.A. amp?
I am defiantly staying with a bel canto amp of some kind. I also have been looking at the S300i, for simplicity.Anyone else like to chime in? 
Bel Ref1000s OR M300s + Gallo refrence S.A. amp?

My dilemma, some advice please.
How good is the integra 9.8 with 2-channel?

BobI forgot to say also will be using an amp if going with a receiver. The receiver will be used for the new codec decoding, if I go that way. 
Gallo 3.1 vs. B&W 804 vs. faber grand piano
What will match good with the 3.1s like center and surrounds? Or do I have to stick with the gallo line?

I think I am leaning towards the gallo's. It sounds like they are just what I am after. Just how much better are 3.1s to the standard 3s?

Well then the B&Ws are out. I defiantly do not want a laid back speaker. 
Most accurate sub under 1,500 used
Shadorne, are you talking about more low frequency extension or sheer output?

How much will I gain over the DD12 with the DD15. The 15 will go a bit lower to 15Hz and the 12 is 17HZ. The DD18 is out of my price range. 
what does everybody think about 120hz and lcd's
I am with Shadorn on this one, I was looking at both plasma's and LCD's for a few months. 120Hz or not LCD's have a motion blur to them.Sure a LCD might be a bit more bright, but they will not have the deep blacks and the depth to the picture a gr...
