| Confused and unsure about upgrading my speakers. I agee with the idea that price is not necessarily an indicator of quality. Relatively inexpensive speakers with great electronics, especially the source, can make often make better music than expensive speakers with poor electronics. The aim of t... | |
| Skylan speakers stands-how much sand? You might find that if you use something like blu-tak to help make a solid connection between the speaker and stand will help you to get better sound from your speakers. Some speakers come with custom stands designed have you actually screw the st... | |

| Integrated Amp DAC Naim Supernait? Bryston B100? I have a Supernait with a Hi-cap. It is fabulous. While shopping for which one I would go with I listened to the Bryston at a dealer through some Focal 1007 BE, I found them to be clinical.

| recommended reading I just got and read: "High Performance Audio Systems" by Harley. It is a very good primer. If you have been (like me) reading audio press for parts of the last 15 years then you will find it does not add anything new to your understanding. If on t... |
