| Considering going Vinyl--Please talk me out of it Aborigine, your system definitely cost more than a sailboat; probably in the neighborhood of a Cal 45 footer... | |
| Considering going Vinyl--Please talk me out of it Gee, I just met a bunch of very interesting and entertaining people by asking essential questions about vinyl; its like the people I've met while on a sailboat--only cheaper! Really, it is cheaper, isn't it? Isn't it?...tell me it is.......... | |
| Considering going Vinyl--Please talk me out of it I'm still peering down into the void; keep up the input, as I am looking at a beautiful AR restoration/mod.....gulp! | |
| New Oppo DV-980H or used Denon DVD-2910? I have two oppos, a 971 and a 981HD; both have wonderful pictures. I have no complaint at all as to the sound on movies, even with my EAD PM2000, Ovation plus, & thiel 2.3's, which can be intolerant of inadequate front ends...The 2910 no doubt... | |
| Can static electricity cause a blown fuse in amp? Thanks for sharing. My crocs will stay off when I'm downstairs with my system; rather the dog eat them than static eat my system. Now I'm off to locate a replacement fuse for my old DR15 Classe. Hope thats all that blew....thanks, mb | |
| Proceed AVP-2 +6 Multi-Channel Analog Input? There is a lot of chatter re this prepro on AVSforum.com. Every question you could have re this piece is on there. Go to the audio forum and hit search for Proceed, and you'll find it. They are all talking about how high the asking price is on the... | |
| Thiel SCS3 I have an all thiel system except for the sub (duh! given the expense of the ss1/22)which is a velodyne uld 15. I use 2.3 mains with scs's as surrounds; scs3 as center. For the 1.6, I think the scs is fine as a center. You may have picked up the s... | |
| Go DirecTV I've had Dish for a long time, and have been satisfied with it, certainly far better than cable. As I am in the boonies of west texas, I was able to get National network (Dallas and L.A.) until my Dallas was cut off and replaced with Chicago. The ... | |
| Thiels or Von Schweikerts I've been lurking out here reading these posts and as a thiel guy since '82, observe the following: I had 03a's for years, then bought 2.2's, had them 8-9 years, & went to 2.3's recently. The biggest and greatest change for the best was when I... | |

| THIEL CS 2.4 PURCHASE I've enjoyed this thread, as I have just upgraded my 2.2's to 2.3's and am shopping for a pre & amp or an integrated to run in a bypass of my ACT 3 HT. I heard a Musical Fidelity A5 in Dallas the other day and was very impressed. An integrated... | |
| Lexicon vs Meridian I just got another act3, and I don't think you can touch it without spending a thousand bucks more, minimum. Shouldn't have sold my first one. I'd like a Meridian 568.1 or 2, but maybe next time. | |
| ADVICE Please: Best Processor under $3K? Thanks, Doug. I needed some input from someone who is familiar with Meridian. | |
| ADVICE Please: Best Processor under $3K? Meridian owners, isn't the setup difficult for non-NASA types? I have romanced a 568 v. EAD Ovation, and have had reservations re the "rocket science" rep of the Meridian. | |
| Acurus Act 3 vs Lexicon Processor Flrnlamb, I agree with your assessment of the ACT3, as I really enjoyed mine, especially the price. Have never heard a Lexicon, so don't want to jump into that fight. However, I would like to know where you got the 7.1 passthrough mod on your act3... |
