question about speaker placement. dead end room?
thx Rich. over the fireplace was my initial plan when i moved in but man does it get hot (i'm a pyro maniac come winter and go threw 2 cords of wood per year =) ) plus...it would put the TV pretty darn high.to answer some of your questions.....cer... 
question about speaker placement. dead end room?
thanks Reubent. should have mentioned that my speakers are about 10 feet apart due to a doorway and HT. if i move the 7b's 4 feet off the rear wall, i'd be about 6 feet away listening, but they would still be 10-ish feet apart. take a look at the ... 
Best Integrated Amp You Ever Heard?
krell's newest integrated. the S-300i is a real gem imo. picked mine up about 3 months ago and couldn't be happier. listened/demo'd countless integrated amp's until i heard this krell. knew it was "the one" as soon as it was turned on. at it's $25... 
Multipal Dedicated AC Lines vs PS Audio Quintet ?
wow G!, that's one impressive piece of equipment. i'm light years behind you with the ps audio quintet. i think it's safe to assume you've got the power situation under control =) 
How to use 2 channel setup with 5.1 setup
i just did this but in reverse. had mid-fi HT system for many years. Denon, Boston Acoustics, Yamaha and the like. decided to tip toe into some higher quality 2ch. if your MF A5 does have true theater by pass...you could be very happy with the res...

Krell's new direct i-pod connection.
since you know the krell integrated so well, any advice regarding power supply and/or upgrades?. good idea or am i drinking the kool-aid a bit?. just posted a question on the tech forum about installing a dedicated line, porter ports and a surge p... 
Krell's new direct i-pod connection.
10k in cables?. i'd venture to guess that really helps sort out the details when comparing components. thought i was a bad-*ss with my cardas ic and audioquest speaker wire lol!. we all gotta start somewhere right?. can't wait to run with you big ... 
Krell's new direct i-pod connection.
then listened to the new s-300i. i could hear no difference between the two. maybe it was the aerial 7b's or the cardas gold ref ic being used?. maybe my ears aren't what they use to be?. regardless, both sounded identical to me. couldn't even det... 
Krell's new direct i-pod connection.
i thought being on a very limited budget and needing to drive the aerial 7b's was going to leave me coming up short. shocking sound for an integrated and a dream at its price point imo.for folks who enjoy an occasional movie, the theater pass thro...

punk was an assault on disco
this post was meant to be a reply to the "punk" post below. stupid newbe mistake on my behalf. the disco comment was meant to be a joke, although there is *some* truth in the comment.my problem with disco wasn't so much the music, as it was the wh...

re-burn in? is there such a thing.
since i seldom use the cdp, i have trouble determining if it sounds worse then right after i burned it in for 200+hours. i've never been good at sound quality comparisons when they are separated by days or weeks....sorry but my ears and memory jus...
