| Integrated Amp For Snell Type J's i like matching 80s speakers with amps of the same vintage, so i like roberjerman's suggestion; otherwise a kyocera receiver or a harman integrated like the pm660 | |
| Nice dark pop album - Widowspeak on Audiotree Live good band, with an excellent singer | |
| cd player that forgives bad cd recordings arcam cd73 or cd72 | |
| Focal Aria 936 / Elac Adante AF-61 / Von Schweikert VR-33 , impressions, thoughts? uber, why not keep your triangles and add a small sub? | |
| What are you streaming tonight? actually, you can create a very good playlist for an impending air crash--srv, skynyrd, buddy holly, otis redding--of course i wish you safe flight | |
| What are you streaming tonight? drive by truckers, american band--i've always admired these guys from a distance--they're certainly smart and sincere, but unlike their idols like skynyrd came off as somewhat clinical and overly literary. this one, however, is the real deal, tune... | |
| FM antennas.............Does ANBODY still make them? xm sq really does suck, which is a pity since it has some great content. i had always hoped that they would create an uncompressed, premium version, but i don't think it'll ever happen... | |

| Have you heard the Sprout100? i heard the sprout 100 recently and i gotta say it's a very impressive piece of machinery for $599--even the bluetooth sounded good. did not seem underpowered at all--the all-in-one functionality, small form factor and clean design should satisfy ... | |
| Budget DAC/Preamp with Remote? just saw a peachtree novapre for $599 at upscale audio. | |
| Looking for suggestions (Martin Logan Source) it looks like amazon lists them singly, so you could buy another single speaker. alternatively you could use it as a center to match with a pair of other mls or try listing your single speaker on ebay and see if anyone else needs one. | |
| NAD Preamp i'd opt for a parasound 2100 or p5--nice gear which will match your amp |
