| AV preamp Vongwinner, you can find a B&K 20 for arround $1200 used. This is a great preamp for the money. I own the AVP 3090(DD&dts/very similar but no tuner/has video switching) and it sounds great. The Classe SSP 25 also can be found used for arro... | |
| Center Channel - Help be choose Shacqspack, I aggree with the above post about tonal matching. I'm always surprised at people who spend thousands of dollars and then don't voice match speakers. If that doesn't matter then why bother even auditioning speakers, they must all sound... | |

| Buyer Beware! Sober1, I think if you e-mail some one more than once, you should proably stay away. You may be unhappy about losing a good deal, but that is better than losing your money. I got burned by a seller than no longer does business here. E-mail answers... | |

| What would you do? B&K AVP-4090/1000? Mike, I bought a B&K AVP 3090 which had been up-graded from a AVP 2000. I was told before the transaction, which I believe you should have been (Question 1). It didn't change my decision and it is an great piece(furthermore because what I paid... | |
| Whats better? Adcom 5800 or Adcom 5802 Twilo, Look at Audioreview.com; you can take the comments for what they are worth, but both amps have alot of reviews. It seems the fan in the 5800 is very noisy. Both amps seem to run very hot. Another consideration would be speaker load compared... | |
