| Philips tells industry: "Don't Mess with the CD " It truly is an amazing company, read what they have invented over the past years, most of what Sony has is from Philips...I just went out and bought 10 philips lightbulbs...did my part !! :) | |

| Someone should kick me in the keester So true, yes EVERYONE says digital is digital the signal is 10101010 10101011Sometimes you get a digital cable that is put together and you get the same signal but like :101010?0 10?01011The transfer..suffers .. I always say for digital, it more t... | |

| Proceed AVP or Meridian 561? Long time ago I had the NHT 2.5 and AVP, was a nice combo, but had an ATI amp.I cannot speak on the meridian, but if you are also a music fan, the AVP has superb 2 chn DACs with analog by-pass and now can decode 96/24. Make sure you get the AVP wi... | |
| Pass Labs 350, Bryston 14ST, Classe 350M I have to agree on the Pass X-350/600, one of the smoothest tubey "fat" amp out there .. I would also recommend the levinson 336 in that class, as well as the Halcros if you can swing it...at the end, your Genesis 200 speakers and you will dictate... | |
