Extreme hardglass CD
Rja - do you live in Japan? My nephew lives in Tokyo. 
are all amps equal
Yes, but that's not helpful to the OP, who has indicated his intention to keep his bookshelf speakers.Sorry - I lost the focus. 
Are there any Violin or Cello players out there?
If you believe that piffle then you'll probably believe any nonsense...Shadorne - I believe it after watching "Red Violin". I pretty much believe "any nonsense" as you stated (with exception of shadow government, black helicopters and area 51).

Tvad - I found bass to be directional in spite of claims tha it is not and some LP recording that were mono below 150 Hz. It is probably in harmonics but wouldn't sub make it worse.Also - don't you feel that speakers like Revel Saloon designed to ... 
Who's your guitar daddy now?
Knownothing - I ordered 3 Sharon Isbin CDs recently - still waitingJpgsf - I was not aware that Sharon Isbin plays "Hey Joe". What is the name of the record?

are all amps equal
Tvad - you have much more experience with audio gear than I do, but it seems to me that there is some correlation between quality of the speaker and its price tag. Good transducers are expensive (tweeters included) and designer have certain constr... 
XLR interconnects?
Lacee - Boom box people don't listen to vinyl but they influence recording quality (as well as MP3 people). I do have The Beatles "Love" but it's remastered CD. It has nothing to do with pressing quality. It just simply means that somebody altered... 
are all amps equal
Tvad - it's a trade off. I asked the question because I plan to upgrade my speakers. Getting lower end (lower than necessary?) will cut on definition, imaging etc (within the same price range). In absolute terms I agree (if price is not important)... 
Why are most High End Amps class A
Spatine - Not the smaller speakers but more efficient once.

Tvad - I understand, but shouldn't 42 Hz be fine if somebody listens to jazz or popular music (and not the organs or double bassoon).
