| Speaker Suggestions $30K Sasha DAW competitor? Good suggestions about room acoustics, but I suggest if the Wilsons only sound screechy on some songs, then it's probably the recording that is screechy. Try the specific recordings on other systems and see how they sound. | |

| Active Speakers Better? No, per Michael Borresen To put it bluntly, passive crossovers are crude. That's why some sophisticated audiophiles prefer no crossover loudspeaker designs. A line level crossover can be much more precise while doing less damage (adding distortion) to the music signal. ... | |
| The Beatles Revolver Yeah, this is like when they colorized black and white movies. No sane reason to do it, but some people thought otherwise. Feel free to ignore or love it to death, after all It's only rock and roll. | |
