| Recommendation for Music/Movies - B&W, Paradigm... That is like asking us whether you should buy a Honda or a Ford, and then telling us you would really prefer a Jaguar. I like Jaguars too. You will enjoy your new speakers. | |
| Best Speakers match for NAD C372 I happened to be auditioning NAD amps and some of the speakers mentioned above this week - I think Hieule 5 and Kbakamian are barking up the right trees. What I heard that sounded good with NAD:-Paradigm Monitor 9 ( I liked the Paradigm SE in this... | |

| Isolation Feet for Blu-ray Player? If your shelves are adjustable, try isolating them from the cabinet frame with a little piece of Blutack or sorbothane dots between the shelves and their supports, and if you don't have space in your cabinet for large wooden platforms under your g... | |
| Isolation Feet for Blu-ray Player? Sakahara,I agree with your point, my bad for not providing a complete description of how wooden blocks can help - maybe I should clarify. I suggest placing hardwood blocks under your player on top of a significant block of wood or other material t... | |
| Wyred 4 Sound STP Se preamp tweaks and upgrades ? "Try better power cords, interconnects and vibration control (good set of footers)."Yes. And try replacing the stock fuse(s) with HiFi Tuning or equivalent silver fuses. |
