P. Scan DVD Players and HDTV-ready TV's
I recently purchased a Mitsubishi HD65857 & was disappointed with the DVD performance I rreplaced a Panasonic DVD310 with a JVC XV-D723 progressive scan player & got a noticeable improvement in performance. As an added bonus the JVC has DV...

Shopping CD players: my big adventure
I think the last response you got is right on. I would wait Perpetual Tecnologies is rumored to be bringing out a DVD A, SACD CD unit for around $1500 after the first of the year & others are sure to follow.I have a pretty good system & it... 
Rel Sub Woofers..Any Experience
I have a pair of Quest Zs & have tried several subs & the only one I could get to seamlessly intergate with them was a Stadium 2. 
Tube Pre-amp beneficial?
I had the same problems with a pair of Quest Zs. I run them with a Krell KAV250 amp & swapped An Adcom 565 for a Sonic Frontiers Line 1 & really noticed a positive improvement. I still would get a little too much top end brightness on some... 
Martin Logan with Sonic Frontier Power 3
I have a pair of Quest Zs powered by a Krell KAV250 & experienced the sound problems as you. I put a Sonic Frontiers Line1 which really helped flesh out the sound but it still got a little bright on the top end so I tried a Pair of cardas quad...

sub to match martin logans
The REl Stadium II has a 180 phase reversal switch. On mine I spent a lot of time trying to dial the sub in & the owners manual said to try reversing the phase if all else fails & that did the trick. I have a friend who is a bass freak &am... 
Sonic Frontiers Line 3 vs. BAT VK-5i
I recently replaced a Line 1 with the 3 & I couldn't be happier. I had a Line 2 demo unit for a month & that was excelen also.The 3 betters the 2 in the deep tight bass it produces. When I had the Line 1 in everybody was surprised by the b... 
sub to match martin logans
I have the same 3 MLs & have had excellent results with a REL StadiumII.Personally I have reservations about the ability of 12 inch or larger woofers to keep up with the speed of the electrostatic panels. The REL with a 10 inch will keep pace ...
