Would an SACD Player improve my sound? I would suggest checking out the TRL modded Sony 595 for $350 that just popped up on Audiogon. I know nothing about the seller or the specific deck but I can vouch for the 595. I owned this sacd player for a few years and loved it. I only sold it ... | |

TBI Magellan I have owned a pair for about 5 or 6 years now and have integrated them with various speakers. These subs do what they do very well. They are more subtle than most subs you are probably used to. They do not move allot of air around and "load" a ro... | |

Dude TRL vs Red Wine Isabella vs Dodd You should pick the amp first. Any of these amps would work well with the Tannoy's so it just comes down to personal taste and the type of music you like, room size, desired sonic flavors, etc.Having said that, I'm a big TRL fan and the used Dodd ... | |
