| Is Apogee in a class by itself among planars? i have not heard the analysis plus or the quads. i have heard the duetta sigs powered by a huge rowland from a good dac. i wsh the systems i heard at the last two rocky moutain audiofests sounded as good as this kit, but they didn't. i could hear ... | |
| I am very happy with my progress to this point. i have found bigger differences with amps than with cd players. yes, different players and dacs can help, but amps make a bigger difference.i have a anthem amp one which puts out 40-55 watts a channel, uses inexpensive tubes, is very well made (in... | |

| Creek 5350SE - Is it all that? perhaps if you mentioned what speaker you use people could make a recommendation. if your speakers are average or above and you don't have a big room or are a headbanger, i would say a dared vp16 tube amp , bypass the vol. control with a simple mo... | |
| Do people don't care or don't know? to jimlevitt i realize that you may have had a particular vision of what a living room should look like, or perhaps the idea was sprung from the fertile mind of an interior decorator or architect. and your question is certainly legitimate and earn... | |
| Do people don't care or don't know? what astounds me is how good the cheap equipment now is people don't know that for about 1700$ you can have something that will bring far more satistaction than the 1500 computor, 400 dollar ipod, and hundreds for compressed to hell downloaded mp3... | |

| Need Ambient Speakers to Hang in Corners. Really use open baffles angled down to you; keep the baffles well away from other surfaces (sounds like that will be easy) a single ciare ch250 in a panel (26X 42?) will provide a very spacious, open, and transparent sound. see diyaudio.com search ch250 ... | |

| Music Hall mmf-5 vs. Rega P3 someone should point out that the rega costs alot more than the music hall. i like the music hall because one can spin the platter with a finger to get it moving; on the rega you don't want to touch it because the belt runs on it. i have upgraded ... | |
| Review: Harmonic Precision Caravelle Speaker first room we walked into at the 04 RMAF in denver was Starsound. Of course there was nothing optimal about the room, yet these speaker impressed deeply from the getgo. the stands were very beautiful (now included in the price of the speakers). th... | |
