Aperion Systems?
I currently have a pair of their mini-monitors (422's) in my LR system. Amazing sound for only $100ea.I have also owned a full Aperion HT system based around the 522-PT's with matching center and surrounds. The only reason I sold this was to upgra... 
Boltz CD racks?
Thanks for the responses! I think I will get them, is there a best place to purcahse from for price, or is it pretty much the same everywhere??? 
Sub $1K Floorstanders for NAD C320BEE
Totem Arro or Sttaf. 
Whats going on with Cary Audio's website
I can access it with no problems...it's been redesigned since my last visit, so maybe it just came back online???

Am I a burning out audiophile????
OK, so our ride yesterday led us past the community pool. We joined and it's close enough to ride our new bikes back and forth to, so 2 new hobbies to fill the summer months and get me back in shape! ;) Sonicbeauty, you pose a good point as well a...

Sammie, that's funny. This Friday I just picked up two retro cruiser bicycles for my wife and I to hit the town on! 
Tubeguys:How much "tube sound" from tube players?
While tubed CDP's can bring some tube warth to an otherwise SS system, I think the closer the tubes are to the speakers the larger the tube benefit/sound - this has just been my personal experience. 
question about tubes, cds, etc
With my PrimaLuna tube amp adding the tubed Jolida CDP seemed to be too much of a good thing, and I preferred my existing (Cairn) SS CDP. Paired with a SS Krell amp, the Jolida seems right at home in that system, bringing some added tube warmth. I...

Well, this evening I played around with the placement of the speakers and it did make quite a difference - in the right direction!Also, my wife and I listened to the following this evening:Anna NalickBetter than EzraO Brother Were Art Thou?Tracy C... 
Am I a burning out audiophile????
Shadorne, get out of my head! ;) All good suggestions, but I find myself listening alone after she has gone to bed for the evening, not 'hermiting' or neglecting in anyway. We spend the evenings shopping, at the movies, mini-golfing, etc. The only... 
Am I a burning out audiophile????
Timrhu, the current system is not a nearfield listening scenario - this may be part of the problem as you state.French_fries, hearing those cost-no-object systems can sometimes be pleasing but i never intend to invest that type of money into hifi ... 
Am I a burning out audiophile????
Shadorne, you are absolutely correct. On more complex musical sources the Winds do out perform the Arros and at higher volumes levels as well. They outperform them on many levels and in many noticible ways. I am disturbed as while I can easily dis... 
Am I a burning out audiophile????
The main body of the room is actually 17'8x18'8, and is open to a 8'x12' alcove on one side and a 4'x10' dormer on the other so it is not as bad as I may have led you to beleive......however, Erasmusj, your idea is an interesting one.Soundlogic, y...
