| You might be an audiophile if... You have a dream that someone stole your power cords and interconnects. | |
| Wish list of higher quality recordings There is an interesting documentary called Kurt and Courtney I think. The premise is to prove that Courtney killed Kurt, they interviewed a bunch of people and attempted to confront Courtney. Is there any good uncompressed ELO material? | |
| Thoughts on Plasma, LCD, DLP and which way to go I visited the B&O store in Portland, OR - that has to be the best plasma I've seen in terms of both hi-def and DVD. I think it was $20K for 55" and $10K for 42". The HT and music system was pretty mediocre for $20K. | |
| Anyone with a high-end home theater sans sub? It would be worth borrowing a sub to see what if any difference exists. | |

| Anyone with a high-end home theater sans sub? If you were watching sitcoms and sports it would be acceptable, but for movies a sub is a must. In fact, ROTS is out tomorrow and I can't wait to watch it and hear it - with the sub. | |
| Need sub recommendations for vr4 jr's The VRS-1 mates extremely well with 4JRs. It is important to fully explore placement (can make a big difference), lead-shot loading, bi-wiring, and good spikes, not to mention amplification with the 4JRs, they are capable of very good bass on thei... | |

| I fell victim to a scam That's a bummer. I looked at using an escrow account, it's expensive but may be worth peace of mind. I also like to talk on the phone with the buyer, verify their address, and verify the origin of the gear with the dealer and or manufacturer. I go... | |
| Music Recommendation: Feist - Let It Die I see on amazon that there is an import version as well. Anybody have that - is it worth the extra $10? | |

| Looking for killer DVD/CD player for 2 channel Check out the threads about the modified Denon units. Having salivated at your two systems, I think this would be an interesting direction for you to explore for that type of player. Good luck. | |
| DK Design VS.1 Ref. mk II ,& a good matching CD. Larry, I agree that the Exemplar 3910 (based on what I heard from Exemplar 2900) is likely a great choice and John Tucker is a wonderful fellow, but isn't it like 3 times the stated budget of $2K? Are you demoing the DK's with Exemplar players wit... | |
| Thoughts on Plasma, LCD, DLP and which way to go PLASMA - especially if you need to do any off axis viewing. | |
| DK Design VS.1 Ref. mk II ,& a good matching CD. I think you will find quite a lot of headroom with the DK and your speakers. I have heard the DK paired with a Musical Fidelity A5 and this combination sounded very nice. |
