| What's Toshiba replacing the Toshiba HD XA2 with? Cytocycle,I will cede you the point about which format was better and when. As I said before, I have no horse in the race. My main points were and still are:1. Now that Sony has won, they will do some algebra on the price to volume balance for sel... | |
| I was driving my wife's new 2008 Acura RDX I also heard that Koni shocks beat the Hell out of Bilsteins for controlling vibration induced distortion. Some people say that low air pressure helps, but I say you need a tight connection with the road... | |
| What's Toshiba replacing the Toshiba HD XA2 with? Cytocycle,I had no dog in this hunt, but you are sounding a sour note. Prices will fall when all companies, including Toshiba, come to market with their own BluRay players and the format becomes a commodity just like SD DVD players are now, e.g. a... | |
| I was driving my wife's new 2008 Acura RDX All good suggestions... no, really.Have to agree with Drubin though, the system may not have settled in yet. Try leaving the radio running at a healthy volume on several successive weekend or other days that you are around the house but not using ... | |

| Teo Macero...RIP... The few recordings I have that were produced by him are top notch. Can folks list your favorite recordings that he worked on here? | |
| Which integrated. Opinions please. For that price, I would check out the PrimaLuna DiaLogue series integrateds. Lower rated wattage but you won't miss it in practice, HT bypass, fantastic sound/$. Or, get a PrimaLuna ProLogue 5 two channel power amp and run it off your Denon for fr... | |
| matching the Arros I have listened to the Arros with Musical Fidelity, Naim and Rega integrated amp and CD combinations, and thought the amps sounded best top to bottom in the order listed. For some reason, in a medium sized room the MF A5 and A3.5 sounded fantastic... | |
| Robert & Alison-Raising Sand If anything, the CD is recorded a little hotter than I like. This is a common problem these days as engineers mix recordings to shine when compressed and played back on an iPods. I still think that the production is excellent with lots going on in... | |
