"mini" monitors for Primaluna prologue two When I listened to the Dynaudios with the Prologue, it was in a medium small listening room as I recall, about 15x20x8. At normal listening levels to volumes high enough to chase the sales person out of the room the sound remained coherent. The Fo... | |

Anybody heard Philips new tubed micro system? Semi,There are a bunch of good selections in compact systems when looking for sound only. The small Denons kick it and JVC makes some nice "executive" desk top systems with very clean amps and wood cone speakers(!). I have a cheap little Onkyo uni... | |

Anybody heard Philips new tubed micro system? Geared4me, Thanks for the info. I found the sound to be acceptable compared to other all-in-one systems in this price range, but was concerned about the video upscaling. Apparently CNET found both the audio and video performance underwhelming. Not... | |

You can get stereo or mono block, stock or modified versions and all come with relatively high to very high current capacity and dampening factors to keep a grip on your speakers and... | |

Creek 5350SE vs Rega Mira 3 Cdc,That was about 1.5 years ago so I have to reconstruct what I heard as best I can remember. I remember was listening to "the great audio experience" disk with various artists - many hifi shops have this well recorded mostly jazz compilation CD.... | |

Recommend Me Some Speakers Can you get by with stand mount/bookshelf monitors, or do you want floor standing speakers? Better imaging and accuracy versus more (but not necessarily better) bass for the money.Monitors:Wharfdale - Diamond 9.1 or 9.2 smooth but accurateB&W ... | |
What is FAST? "Fast" is only part of the sonic story, but an important part I think. It might be easy to confuse the term "Fast" with "Bright" and "Slow" with Dull". I think the later comparison is stronger than the former. I agree with the previous posts that ... | |
