Vandersteen Model 7: has anyone heard?
I heard them at RMAF, and do agree- was one of the best sounds at the show.Tvad, even though I do understand your sentiment, but couldn't agree with your impression. Of course, it's a matter of personal preference.I actually made an honest attempt... 
Good Horn Speakers Of Moderate Size
Duevel Bella Luna Diamante- they are horn-loaded omnidirectional 
Can I ground my preamp?
Tvad,I do have have Ground Zero and used it in various system configurations. It definitely works, but requires quite a bit of fiddling, and in some cases is not 100% effective.I have to admit though, I probably didn't have enough patience to foll... 
Preamp Deal of the Century
I just received new Chenin from Mick, cannot make any comments yet, it's still in the box. 
This is no joke.
Musicnoise, Mickeyf,I have a better idea- I hear they just opened a redneck forum, why don't you get your refined sense of humour, along with your own sorry behinds and just move there.You'll be well entertained there discussing merits of Bud Ligh... 
This is no joke.
Musicnoise,If you really consider your references to "cats nailed to speakers" an art form, you are sadly mistaken.And your attempt to paint those, who are disgusted by your perverted "sense of humor" as fascists, is sadder still.And will you stop... 
This is no joke.
I agree with Magfan. The jokes didn't strike me as absurdist.Certain topics, such as references to child sexual abuse, cruelty to animals,or disability of any sort, etc. should be avoided in ANY context. It's just a poor taste, and not something o... 
This is no joke.
Dekay,Couldn't agree with you more. "Sorry examples" is probably an understatement.I wonder if they could express their ugliness not being protected by the anonymity of the internet forum.It's like stepping into a pile of sh-t, really.I wonder, wh... 
This is no joke.
What was that noise again? Couldn't hear you. 
This is no joke.
Mickeyf,That wasn't funny at all. Any reference, even intended to be humorous, to an animal cruelty, is absolutely repulsive, and out of place in this forum.IMHO. 
Anyone compared BAT Rex vs. Atmasphere MP-1?
I heard MP-1 in the same room at THE Show with CAR speakers, and liked the room very much. 
Anyone compared BAT Rex vs. Atmasphere MP-1?
Dgarretson,Could you share your impressions of MP-1 in your system? 
Anyone compared BAT Rex vs. Atmasphere MP-1?
Darkmoebius,This is a very abbreviated version of my experience with the above preamps:Supratek: dynamic, fairly resolving and involving, but is not completely neutral- it did have very annoying (to me) mid range glare on certain recordings. After... 
Anyone compared BAT Rex vs. Atmasphere MP-1?
As usual, this thread deviated from the original question- comparison of BAT REX and Atma Sphere MP-1 (MK III?).I'm another one who would be interested in this topic.As many others here, I've had BAT REX in my system for a significant period of ti... 
Current processors with HDMI
Sorry for not providing all these details:Yes, I do need Blue Ray and 3D, Room correction and video processing. And I would like to stay under $1500 retail.Integra is one of the choices.
