Krell , Martin Logans Mark Levinson?
lev335 - Holy Cow. I can't believe you sold your 335 for a Krell!!! After all those postings about your love for the 335. I never trust what I hear in the store, because you have no idea how that relates to the hundred variables different at home.... 
Solid state amplifier $2K Used or New
Listen to a Pass Aleph amp. You'll be surprised. 
Help!! Low level hum from FM cable sgnl
Hey, I just ran a wire with an aligator clip from the outside (screw) connector of the Cable to the ground on my amp and the hum was gone. 
Ground for Cable TV Hummmmmmmmmmm
Try this (it worked for me): run a wire from the outside connector of your TV cable (I had a wire with an aligator clip on it) to the ground on your amp. That Radio Shack "grounding block" is just a cable connector with a screw on it for connectin... 
Don't try this at home hElP
lornecherry: thanks for your post.... that made my morning. I wouldn't be surprised to see a similar finding in one of the leading stereophile mags!! :-) 
DLP Rear Projection HDTV ???
I just saw the MIT DLP rear Proj TV this last week and was blown away at how "smooth" the picture was. It really looked like film. There were no lines, but very small squares that became invisible 5 feet away. They were selling it for $12K, I thin... 
Do Transparant Cables have a sonic sig?
I think they sound very dull and artificial. Beware of electronics in your wires!!! All they can do is throw away something. And, there is the risk that they will add noise or distortion to your signal. 
Wilson WATT...worth buying?
I agree with most of these posts (even lev335): The Wilson Watt speakers are not worth the money, even at used prices. Mainly because there are the other great speakers out there also at used prices, like Revel Gems or Studios, much more natural s... 
Amps/Preamps for Revel Studios
I have a pair of Revel Studios and used to have a Levinson 331. Then I tried a Pass Labs Aleph 4. I went back and forth over a 2 month period because I did not want to part with the 331, but everytime I hooked up the Pass amp, I knew the levinson ...

DLP Rear Projection HDTV ???
I just saw a Seleco DLP projector for $9000 and it was very impressive. model 200 
Classic Levinson Amps
CW: You ought to listen to a Pass Labs Aleph amp. They are 2 or 3 stage pure class A (SET type) amps. So natural and smooth. 
Pass X-150 X Levinson 334
I sold my #331 in favor of the Pass Labs Aleph 4. I had both in the house for a couple months, going back and forth to make sure I wasn't crazy. The Pass was much more natural and airy. The Lev sounded dull in comparison. I invited some other audi... 
Rowland Model 10 or Levinson 335
I have Revel Ultima Studios and sold my Levinson amp in favor of the Pass Labs Aleph 4. Have you heard the Pass amps? 
CAL CL2500 vs. Casa Nova vs. Proceed
just one comment: I own the AVP and find it easy to use while sounding great. I urged a friend to buy a Casanova (because it was quite a bit cheaper at the time) and its horrible to use. The worst manual ever and very difficult to program. I would...
