NHT 3.3 or von Scheikert VR4
No experience with the Von Schweikert, but have heard the 3.3's extensively in a good friends high-powered SS Levinson system. They have some of the deepest, cleanest bass I've ever heard in his configuration (or any other for that matter). Very d... 
Time to reflect - why do you post on Audiogon.....
Nope, it can't be explained away that easily Nrchy. Gunbei (the GreenMan) is the one without the rectum. It wasn't part of the twelve-step program, and it's not contagious! So I got no such excuse for the abundance of &*%$# that fills me up! I...

Nrchy - I was a Baptist minister before Audiogon showed me the error in my ways. I went into one of their twelve-step programs. Had the shakes something fierce, thought I wasn't going to make it. Met the GreenMan over there at the clinic and he he... 
Speakers similar to Avantgarde horn
In order of size (and likely corresponding average price you will find them at, although there are always bargains to be found); Klipsch Khorn, Belle Klipsch, Klipsch LaScala, Klipsch Cornwall, Klipsch Heresy All have the stunning clarity and spee...

Dammit Gunbei, I thought we agreed not to speak publicly of our 'special relationship'. I told you, people won't understand what we have together. People are cruel, intollerant and jelous when they see a green slant-headed boy walking hand in hand...

Vinamese -That's Pokeydammit who's the good horse. Gumby is just a green slant-headed boy with big eyes and no genitalia to speak of (no wonder he's pissed off!). Gunbei (Dean) is a good egg.....no wait, that's Humpty Dumpty!! FerChrissake Dean, w...

Kickbacks and payoffs from the audio manufacturers. That, and the great medical plan and retirement benefits keep me posting. Marco PS ......Hell, If I can save a few heathen solid state listeners from the ravaging onslaughts of that wicked platfo...

There's way to much laughing going on here! For god's sake, this is a serious forum. Straighten up and fly right! Keep'yer ginsu knives for those tin cans that need cuttin' up. All you folks needing a good massage, getting old and tired, and consi... 
Low watt system for rock,electronica?
If that were my primary musical interests I would probably go the SS route instead. If they are secondary interests, as has been pointed out, they can sound pretty darn good on a low-power tube system done right. Those systems make acoustic music ...

Nick Said:"One final comment: any camera with manual options (which the 770 has, by the way) will teach a person a lot about lighting, exposure control, composition, etc. I don't think anyone would argue with this."Simply having the options availa...

Gunbei is absolutely correct. Megapixels do not tell the whole story and are certainly NOT an indication of image quality necessarily. There are cameras that produce a with 4 megapixel ccds that will produce consistently better images than cameras...

RW - I'm not quite clear on why you'd find it surprising that a question about photography would result in responses from those who knew about photography. People who do it to make a living and actually depend on their gear to put food on their ta...

I'll give you yet one more professional recommendation for the Mac if you have not figured it out by now. In the world of photography and graphic design and image manipulation Mac rules. Period. End of story. I've been taking pictures since I was ... 
My opinions re. SET and pp triode
Jrd351 - B.B. was probably listening to Anne Murray when he wrote that. LOL on your post, but I whole-heartedly disagree. Most of the music is in the midrange, and if you don't get that right, you ain't got squat! Bringing it to the magical level ...
