| Downsizing from tower to bookshelf I second the KEF R3, Meta version. Really nice speaker and well under your limit. | |
| Single Sub Position I was never able to get decent bass at my listening position. Added a second sub and problem was solved. | |
| Speaker cables with good timbre DACs and cables. The biggest black hole money pit in audio. This is a merry-go-round I stay away from. Sort of interesting to start to read a thread like this until it becomes so tedious that my eyes begin to cross. So many people think that you m... | |
| Active Wireless speaker, Dynaudio, Buchardt or Sonus Faber? you will get lots of personal opinions but without a budget, many will be of no use. | |
| 55” or 65” TV Screen Size and Your Speakers: Please Join Survey Actually, I respectfully disagree with the bigger is always better. Good piece several years back in Consumer's Report about sizing a screen to your room and distance from screen. The primary thing I picked up about too big is that you can have di... | |
| Are You Old Enough to Remember Those Jaw-Dropping Manufacturer Demos? Although not jaw-dropping in a "trickery" sense, two things stand out in my mind. These both occurred in the late 70's or early 80's Those were the glory days when good stereo stores were plentiful in most metro areas. I was in Kansas City at the ... | |
| My wife weighed in…she wants piano white tower/bookshelf +1 one on the KEF's. Close to your budget, might even consider the Blade two. If you go with the LS60, based on room size, you may not need a sub. If you do, The KC series look nice. I've not heard but it would stay with the "house" sound. | |

| Replacing Capacitors, I Don’t Wanna! My amps are fine but when my A/C quit cooling on a 90+ degree day last week I was not a happy camper. Fortunately, I'm on a priority status with my HVAC vender so I received same day service. Good/bad news, competent tech who quickly found a swoll... | |
| Creativity on artists I dislike @shtinkydog You hit a lot of them that I've thought about for years. One of mine is Bloaty and the Who fish. | |
| What to do/ Bad part of a D.J.'s collection is the abuse that most of records have probably suffered. All the handling and back cueing (depending on what he played) may have hurt them. |
