How many of you guys use a HT processor ?
Ever since I got the Classe SSP75 I no longer needed the messive number of boxes in my living room including the Pacific Microsonics Model II. 
Buffered CD player?
Yeah! My $600 PC with SPDIF output and 1GB of "Buffer"!!!!You people are nuts! Still spending money on CD transport!OPEN INVITATION! I WILL PAY $100 to anyone able to dell the difference between any CD transport and MY PC!A 
Decent SACD?
I moved on as far as CD concerned.I have ecnoded all my 400 CDs using windows media lossless and it all runs off my pc connecting SPDIF to my Classe SSP75. Never Look back!There still seem to be a lot of die hard CD transport fanatics and CD lover... 
Decent SACD?
Look for a review I did between the Denon 2900 and the marantz 8400 right here, just 3 months ago!There is no comparasion!!! The DENON has 0 chance against the marantz in sound.Picture is an other matter. (If you care.)A 
Why is 2 Channel better than multi-channel?
The only reason 2 ch is better then 5.1 is becouse we (you at least) all live with missmatched speakers.Have you noticed how in recording studios all 5 speakers are the same?!!!!! Well actually there is one other problem. Most 5.1 mixes just plan ... 
Lexicon MC-12 or Meridian 861?
I can't attest to the Meridian, but the MC12 is WAY overpriced when it comes to sound quality.For $7k the Classe SSP75 (and even the SSP60!!!) blows it away. BIG TIME. 
Lexicon MC-8 : What's your experience? Good/Bad
After 5 years of living with my Lexicon DC1 (v4 loaded), I started looking at prepros at around January.At this time my budget was a bit more and was ready to spend up 8k. Reading all the reviews and having owned a LOT of lexicon gear (besides the... 
2 Classe ca 100's vs 1 Classe ca 200 ?
The 14B is two 7Bs in one box.The 7b is a bridged 4 in one box.They are essentially all the same.A,. 
Bryston 7B SST vs. Parasound Halo JC 1 shootout...
You got to put the CLasse CAM 350's or even the 200's in there!! 
Dealer needs input, next wave of gear?
Thanks.I looked it up also.Nice box. However I think many of your missed the point.Windows Media 9 has a lossless codec that somehow turns existing PCM stuff into a 2:1 compressed format that sounds better then the originial.And it all has to do w... 
Dealer needs input, next wave of gear?
COMPRESSED!!!COMPRESSED!!!It all sucks! You can't talk about any device that uses MP3 or any other compressed formats and be taken serioulsly about audio!!!Give me a break! 
Dealer needs input, next wave of gear?
MP3 is useless!!!Give me a break!How can anything with MP3 be audiophile???AAC (the one used by Itunes) is far superiour, but lets face it nothing beats lossless. 
Dealer needs input, next wave of gear?
I'm not even sure if I understand the questioin, but let me tell you this!I'm busy and not very organized.Loose CD's all the time and my 600 plus collection is not even in alphabetical order!Windows Media Player 9 has changed my life!Like many of ... 
The best AES/EBU digital cable under $100???
DH Labs only.ANything more you pay you are just wasting money.A 
Denon DVD2900 Vs Marantz Dv8400.
Well, check this out.The opamp, they are not BB, they are cheap JRC's .32 ea.I took it apart finally the other day.So, this baby is going under the knife.It will get better caps, and a nice opamp, (not sure which yet). The clock also needs work as...
