| Best 5 Channel Amp I don't know what speakers you are using but an excellent bargain for a five channel amp is the Sherwood Newcastle 9080. The aamp is rated @ 120 watts per channel/8 ohms and 170 watts / 4 ohms. I use it to drive five Magnepans with much sucess. Yo... | |
| Receiver vs Processor I would suggest that you check out the Sherwood Newcastle Home Theater Processor(AV9080). Audiogon has some listed for under $500.00.Check the Sherwood website for their new updated processor also. | |
| HT - Which processor Try the Sherwood Newcastle 9080-series H/T preamp/ processoralong with the matching 9080 5-channel amp. Smarthome.com is selling this combo for $1500 right now. Check with audiogon dealers and you may beat that price! Believe me, it will be worth ... | |
| Bi-amp with multi-channel amps in H/T Thanks for the suggestions,gentlemen. Since my first posting, I've added the Maggie center channel and a Paradigm PS-1000 sub to the setup, but I haven't bi-amped yet. The multi-channel amp is the Sherwood 9080, which has done a fine job driving a... | |
| Mid-Fi Amp/Preamp for Martin Logans If your definition of "mid-fi" means cost below,say, $2000 for H/T separates, consider Sherwood Newcastle 9080 series (although the new 9090AVP pre will be out this fall).I'm using the 9080 with Magnepans all around with good results and I'm famil... | |
| Best Receiver under $1200 (new)? I strongly recommend the Sherwood Newcastle 9080 separates instead of a receiver. You can find this combo for under $1200 if you watch Audiogon or other sites.E-mail me if you need more info. | |
| Speakers to hang on to for LIFE I've been using magnepan MG1's for about 18 years. I just added Maggie MG3a's for H/T fronts and my trusty MG1's as surrounds. They aren't going anywhere anytime soon! | |
| Vinyl or wait for the new stuff?? You will never regret having the classic experience of vinyl. I still enjoy throwing an old "disk" on the turntable and relaxing with music from the 60's on up! | |
| SONY WEGA and component video ......... I have a friend who has given up on using DVD with her 36-inch Sony Wega.She does not like the letterbox format so VHS will be the mode for watching movies. | |
| What's happened to AUDIO magazine???? Has stereo review or any other publisher stepped up to the plate and will replace Audio magazine's annual equipment directory? | |
| Acurus versus Bryston, Classe, Etc. Thanks for the info on Acurus. I will be using Magnepan MG3's for the front and MG1's for the rear.No center or sub yet. My entertainment priorities are (1) Vinyl-Linn LP12 (2)Home theater (3) CD's.Basement room W/carpet is 25 x 10 X 8. | |
| Cincinnati, OH, any audiophiles? Another excellent hi-fi shop in the Columbus area is Genesis Audio(Gahanna,Ohio). They carry many of the top brands- Levinson, Revel, Sound Lab, etc.- and guys like Art, Chuck and Steve are longtime audiophiles who still love "vinyl"! Check out ww... | |
| What's happened to AUDIO magazine???? I too agree that SOMEONE should keep the October Buyers Guide tradition going. My library includes the last twenty years of them. I'll go into withdrawal this fall.HELP! |
