| Speaker recommendations for small space Vandersteen also makes some on-wall surrounds. Haven't heard them either, but Vandy's pedigree would make me strongly consider them too.That is, of course, if you like Gallo's and Vandersteen's presentations. | |
| Speaker recommendations for small space Have you considered the Gallo on-wall stuff? Haven't heard it personally, but I doubt Gallo would put out anything less than amazing. | |
| ProAc Studio 100 vs. Proac 1SC vs. Harbeth P3ESR I don't have much experience with any of the speakers you mentioned, so my advice should be taken with a grain of salt. I've heard them, but not for any length of time to give the insight the others here have...If you're really intrigued by Harbet... | |
| Complete newbie needing guidance/purchase advice Renaissanceman,Welcome to our world of craziness. I don't have as much experience with this stuff as a lot of others, but I was pretty much where you are about 10 years ago.In looking at building a system, consider whether you want to focus on sur... | |

| Sonos surprise "The reason is that one thing I noticed when I was running the NAD as a Pre, using the digital out on the Sonus, was that if I had nothing playing but turned the volume on the NAD all the way up, I got noise. Like a hiss/hum. I don't get this when... | |
| Artists that deserve box sets I'd love to see the old Metallica albums get remastered - Kill 'Em All through ...And Justice For All. Great music IMO that diserves better sound quality. I bought them on standard vinyl, and they were decent. I'd love a clean, high-res version of... | |

| Bryston sound 'neutral' ???? ...Nor use anything subjective like, god forbid, good music to come to any conclusions. | |
| Where to have Focal speakers worked on? Call Audio Plus? A lot of distributors are pretty good about that stuff. Many would rather help you out in this regard than have you hassle with packing, shipping, waiting several weeks to get it back, and so on. If its just a simple swap out, I c... | |
| Best optical cable from Apple TV to DAC I use a Sonicwave glass toslink between my ATV1 and Rega Apollo. Far better than an high priced fiber optic cable (fancy word for plastic) that I used. The Sonicwave cable cost me $25 with shipping included from Amazon.I think Sonicwave makes plas... | |
| Cable Settling??? 12-13-11: Hifihvn"listening to you music." Another bad grammar day. I hope Elizabeth isn't mad.How about "But getting to the point, a fried had an amp of mine for a week of two."Had to be that guy. Sorry!!! | |
| Bryston sound 'neutral' ???? There's no absolutely neutral component.I'm a Bryston owner and participate in the Bryston Circle; that doesn't mean I'm some close-minded fanboy who thinks anything and everything else is junk by any means. I chose my B60 and have kept it for goi... | |
