No sound from Pro-Ject Pre Box RS Digital Toslink Inputs
I'm pretty sure that most TVs output Dolby Digital from their digital outputs.  Your Pre Box RS won't decode video codecs like your Yamaha AVR.You might be able to get into the TVs settings and change the digital output to just PCM or some other n... 
Amplification Recommendations For Magnepan .7
Yes you can.  The SVS2000 only has line level inputs (no speaker level), but it also has an output.You would run a pair of interconnects from the output of the Aune to the input of the sub.  Then run a pair of interconnects from the output of the ...

The Audioengine B2 is really nice.  Not sure if it's bigger than you are looking for.On the small side, I own and really like the Cambridge Oontz and the Dell AD211.  Excellent sound for such a small speaker. 
New Vinyl or Old Vinyl ?
"Isn't THAT silly?" Not if you're a serious collector.  Jealous? 
Need New MM Cartridge Recommendation
"IMO, a good MM cartridge is good on any type of speaker, not just a "box" speaker. Likewise for a good MC type."I thought that poster was just trying to be being funny.  If he was serious, that's just stupid. 
New Vinyl or Old Vinyl ?
"Do you have the socks & underwear too...?!"  No, but I do have a T-Shirt and a Poster :-)10-12 is nothing.  I probably have 20 different copies of Steely Dan's "AJA" and close to 15 different copies of "Hotel California" and multiple copies o...

Ortofon 2M Black and AT150MLX seem to be much admired, if they fall within financial constraints in terms of cost. +1  I own both and they indeed excellent.  Since the Corus Black doesn't have a replaceable stylus you could have SoundSmith reti...

My 50W, 8ohm amp can't drive my 86db, 4ohm speakers? WTF??
"My 50W, 8ohm amp can’t drive my 86db, 4ohm speakers?"Really...I’m shocked :-) 
Paradigm 5se bookshelf speakers w/stands
They are really more of a bookshelf monitor than full range. Their on axis specs are 60hz to 20khz, so no deep bass.I was a Paradigm dealer for many years back when Bill and his brother were out schlepping them from store to store to just get them... 
Cable length dilemma!
This has been discussed ad nauseam on here. Al (almarg) has by far the best comments available. Maybe do a search. (I did the search for you below.)I can tell you that you should NEVER coil the wire. It will cause inductance. You should, if you ha...
