| Subwoofer Cables. How important is quality? Any well-built OFC interconnect should be just fine. I have a slight preference for silver-plated copper for my sub. | |
| Attn Vinyl lovers - what CD Player do you use? Arcam DV89 | |
| Best HT subwoofer betwwen $2k-3k? A little more info, such as room size, would be helpful. | |
| Please help--my ears are hurting Papertrail, you're certainly at a fork in the road. Jolida and Spendors are fine recommendations, although I'm not a tube guy. Solid state equipment can be very good, especially integrated amps (receivers without tuners) from companies like Arcam,... | |
| Power Bars I just went through this. Before settling on a Powervar, I talked to Gilbert @ Blue Circle about the Music Ring and, if I could have afforded it, the 1200 would've been near the top of my list. If the wattage/amps is high enough (12-18 amps), most... | |
| sexiest sounding female vocalists? Fatparrot, I forgot about Rachel Sweet. I actually saw her in concert 1970 something. It was great to see guys pushing to the front of the stage. She was wearing a little white peasant top (popular at that time), Wow, what a visual memory. Thanks,... | |
| Any experience w/ Earthquake subwoofers? Greg, I looked long and hard at Earthquake before I went to an Art of Sound sub. You might want to listen w/the Maggies before you buy. REL might also be a direction to look. Happy hunting. | |
| sexiest sounding female vocalists? Ooh, Johnette Napolitano from Concrete Blonde does it for me in a "whip me, beat me" sort of way. | |
| Too many speakers for home theater? Exertfluffer, you've been most hel[ful with your response. The only thing I haven't done is check the frequency response for each speaker individually. I'm aware of general setup rules and, for the most part, have a fine sounding HT. I was really ... | |
| New Years Resolutions Nah, don't do it. Being crabby and intolerant is a catharsis. George W. Sr promoted "kinder, gentler" and look what a jackass his offspring is. Besides, a little "tude" (if it's not mean-spirited like JM) helps people believe you're committed in y... | |
| Too many speakers for home theater? Thanks Rwwear | |
| Shortlist of Speaker Cables/ICs: advice/opinions Okay, two things, First, if you only have these available, listen for yourself and decide which you like better (after all, it's your system). And two, virtually all cables are available as an internet buy (it's clear that you have internet servic... | |
| Rotel RSX-1067 , Arcam AVR 300, B&K AVR 507 S2 I have the B&K and have considerd the Arcam. However the B&K provides much more flexibility. The Arcam is less expensive. I don't see how you can go wrong with either. | |
| I completely lack fiscal discipline... At least you didn't buy the I-Pod to plug into your billion dollar Wavac amp. | |
| Isolation feet for monitors Wearherstripping is what I have used under my monitors on a number of different platforms. It's real cheap too. It comes in different densities and thicknesses. It's worth a try. |
