Best big screen for under $4000.00 I personally went with the Samsung DLP. It's much faster than the Sony's (LCD's - ever wonder why computer gamers don't use LCD's?????? The refresh rate is usually why!) I got my 61" DLP for just about $5000, but that was from a local dealer ad wi... | |
How many amps should I buy for my speakers? I have to agree with Prpixel, I ran Matrix 802's (series I, which actually are like the 803s) and had an Aragon 4004 Mk II (200wpc) and if anything, I think they would have opened up more with some more power. As far as a 100 watt receiver..... I... | |
What was your first music that you paid for? My first LP was Yes Fragile, also bought at Woolworths.... They must have been pretty big in the record business back then, or we all just bought them where our mothers took us!I think the stereo was a Panasonic all in one job.with seperate speake... | |
First pre/pro and hopefully last I hadn't heard of the SSP75 being discontinued...but I figured it would be on it's way out soon, as it's been around a while. that works fine for me, I'll be able to get one used cheap!!!! | |
First pre/pro and hopefully last I'm in a similar hunt for a new pre/pro, I personally don't like the Bryston, and have had Aragon in the past and found it a little rough in the mids and highs, so to me it was somewhat fatiguing. Ive heard good things of the Integra gear, but ha... | |
Best All time 5.1 Pre/Pro Thank you all for the input!!! I'm still shopping around, and trying to decide if I really want to go with multichannel music...I've been very happy with my current system (Linn 5103, 4x5140's, 5120 and 5150, all powered actively by 7x 5105's)....... | |
A Packing and Shipping Manifesto WOW!!!Great post...I see we've all had our share of experience!!!One thing you didn't mention in regards to Mailboxes Etc... Yes, the person packing likely is a moron, I've found some good ones, but they are few and far between. The company DOES h... | |
Poweramp for channels I couldn't agree with Elevick more!!! I tried many combinations before I went to all the same amps and matched speakers...it really makes a difference. | |
Best big flat screen under 4k I would stay clear of the Gateway Plasma's for now, the ones I've seen look washed out, and they have consistently gotten horrible reviews. I agree with the Panasonics, though they are outside of this price range. If you must go plasma, you might ... | |
Commercial vs retail TV what are tech differences? If you are looking at the panasonic plasmas, the only difference is the model number. | |
Best big flat screen under 4k The samsung DLP is great, you could do the 43 or likely 50 inch if you shop around for that price, it's only ~15 inched deep as well and has amazing picture... I've got the 61" and love it! | |
ipod and dac? I own two iPods, a 1rst Gen 10 Gb, that I gave to my wife...OK so I own one now, and a second Gen 20 Gb (bought from MacMall for $259 when the new versions came out) I absolutely love them, but would not use them for critical listening. I think so... | |
sleeper budget redbook players.... Philips DV963SA, I bought mine new fro $370 shipped from J&R, tough to beat at that price, and it's a pretty good DVD player as well! | |
How to upgrade from Aragon 4004 mkII amp I had one for a while as well, and went to an Active Linn system (3x5105's w/5140's) and never looked back. The 4004 Mk II is a solid amp, but the linn stuff is so much smoother in the upper mids and highs. I lost all the graininess I heard with t... | |
Who was this "band" ??? ...BTW the complete Young Ones is available on Amazon......if you need some good presents for the holidays!!! |
