| Lottery Winner would buy what kind of Stereo Gear 04-09-13: KnghifiYou guys are audiophile Geeks, you can't think of anything better to do with supermodels than room treatment? LOL!!!!!You sir, obviously don't know how intimate I get with my room treatments!! haha :) | |
| Need multi-channel that's great on 2 channel Good luck with that search Jeff. I tried for several years to find a high end SSP that sounded great with music, until I finally gave up and bought a stereo preamp with a HT throughput. | |
| Hi-Fi Fuses - SNAKE OIL? - or something in it? 04-09-13: WilliewonkaA sense of humour keeps us sane, especially in this "hobby" :-) Absolutely....though my sanity is still very questionable! ;) | |

| Help with older gear I understand that there was little use and low hours, they are over 20 years old though. Bad things can happen without use. Like moving parts in the Dragon could seize up, belts dry out, as does woofer surrounds, caps and other electronic parts ca... | |

No, I don't think unequal lengths will be an issue.I have owned the Nordost Heimdall and Analysis Plus Solo Crystal 8 speaker cables. I preferred the Acoustic Zen Satori Shotgun over bot... | |
| price point to move to separates vs integrated One fellow said something along the lines of: as soon as you can afford low end separates you should go that route over a more expensive integrated due to the interactions in the same chassis. LOL! What a twit! Maybe he meant that low end separate... | |
| Cables for biwiring Put 10 audiophiles in a room to talk about cables and they will emerge with 11 different opinions. | |
