| Did Krell ever produce an out standing CD player?? I own the Krell S-350, have used it in my system for 3 years and am satisfied. The 350S replaced my Cambridge Audio 840C CD player. The Cambridge was not reliable, and I had to send it in for repair 3 times. The Krell has worked reliably for 3 yea... | |
| B&W 805S vs Kef R500 I own the B&W 805S and have been happy many years. In my medium size room, they work best out from the wall behind them. In my case this wall is the long wall of my rectangular room. The front of the tweeter is 40 inch from the back wall. I al... | |

| audiophile rockers Steely Dan's The Royal Scam (MCA AAD) is among the worst sounding RBCDs in my collection. Pearl Jam's Yield among my best sounding RBCDs. The guitar textures on Yield are exquisite. | |

Don't miss the listener call ins at the end of each week's podcast, where listeners comment on previous epi... | |
| transparent cable sound signature Imaging is a strength. Rock recording vocals emanate solidly from a point half-way between my standmount speakers. I can see the vocals with eyes open straight ahead as opposed to closing my eyes and determining their placement. Bjork's Homogenic,... | |
