The rumors were well-founded but premature. NYC in 2007.Kal 
ARTEMIS EOS... with bass modules
Wonderful speakers. Reviewed them years ago and still miss themKal 
Consumer Electronic Show ?
Yes but the last two venues are likely to have seen their last CES. The exhibits that were at the Alexis Park have been moved to the Venetian where security is likely to be comparable to that at the convention center. (The AP is no more thanks to ... 
Bel Canto S300 vs Channel Islands D-100
I am using a setup similar to that described by Gregc with 3 REF1000s up front and an S300 for the surrounds with satisfaction and without incident. In addition, while the REF1000s are nicely synergistic with some speakers (to be named), they have...

Single Input, Multi Output, RCA Switchbox??
If the regular switchboxes have shorting-type switches, you could use one in reverse for your purposes.Kal 
Paradigm Tweeter dome replacement?
You can do either but the replacement dome is cheaper, so that's what Paradigm will send you under warrantee. The best way to replace the dome is to remove the entire tweeter so that you can work with it placed horizontally on the work surface. Re... 
Classical SACD's to die for
First, all the MTT/Mahlers have CD, stereo SACD and mch SACD tracks. There was a glitch on the original issue of the 6th but those were replaced.Second, I second the nomination of the Fischer Mahler 2nd.Kal

How to convert an input to tape output
A competent tech can do this pretty easily. Of course, you have to find one and pay for it.You need to run wires from the preamp section and, more than likely, insert a buffer. Not hard if you know what you are doing.Kal 
Advise on Audyssey Sound Equalizer installation?
The Audyssey won't care what your config is and will do its best to adjust each speaker optimally. Kal 
center speaker options for gershman x-1 based home
I do not agree. An unmatched center is worse than a phantom center since it will skew the FR of the entire system.If you cannot get the dedicated center, consider a smaller regular speaker from the same stable. Most of these are superior to the so... 
Difference between B&W 800N/SIG and B&W800D
I think that 802D bass observation is dependant on the room and positioning and I have experienced that it can be corrected. The big advantage of the 800D over the N800Sig is in the new technology for the tweeter and woofers as well as the attenda...
