| What is your take on high efficient speakers vs. low efficient speakers? In my opinion high efficiency for larger rooms. Less efficient for smaller. It all depends on the room which affects the over all sound. Klipsch Horns in a 12x12 would sound awful. In a 20x20 wonderful. Also depends what's in the room. | |

| For those of you who had spent over hundred thousand dollars for your sound system. If you are worth millions then $100k is reachable without any thought. . $$$$$ is in the ears of the beholder. Whatever makes you happy is what matters. There is a different world I cannot imagine. I heard 50k speakers that could not compete wit... | |
| Using battery power to go off the City's power grid Not sure why you want to be off grid other than during a thunderstorm? With proper voltage regulation and filtering grid power is fine. Inverters can be noisy too. Especially under quick peak loads. Much power thermal losses with inverters too. | |

Advent speakers. 3. Radio Shack Minimus 7 Now. My D... | |

| Dynaudio - Made in China vs Denmark Here is my take on made in China. Though we would love to have everything made in Denmark or the United States or any free country, companies continue to have a communist adversary to build everything you can imagine. Here is the deal. How closely... | |

| Best streamer for a returning audio guy The best bang for the dollar is the Blusound Node 2i. Sounds great through a Shiit Biftost DAC. The Bluesound is a bit harsh with no external quality DAC. | |
