Speakers for 50W Triode tube amp
Seriously consider Silverline since price wasn't mentioned.One of the better speakers across the spectrum being very efficient without going to horns.D 
Just how obsolete are DD and DTS?
The answer, quite simply, is yes. THX certification means nothing more than it having been MIXED properly to meet specs. Substantially less important on the video side of life than the audio. Even the audio side is given FAR too much credit for TH... 
Can a Chiro C500 be bridged for more power?
No, the amp is not bridgable. Do you mean to rewire it internally? What you can do is buy another C-500 (as I have done) and biamp speakers. Dan 
HE IS BACK AND BEWARE
It seems like small potatoes, but if you look at some of the completed auction, he had a $4,800 macintosh PC. He starts out with DVDs and CDs, then into McIntosh home theater, Lexicon, and the likes. His deal with buying is this. No ddeposit, he s... 
Oh where or where have all the buyers gone?
ERICBEE -I would agree with the economic turns, but that said, I did look at some of your recent pricing, and it also is paired with that. In a recent add you have listing a pair of Aerial 10Ts for $4,600 I wouldn't call aggressive. DON'T get me w... 
HE IS BACK AND BEWARE
I think this person went an did a BuyItNow for everything left on his auctions and then immediately left comments about the seller!!!This guy has been around awhile. 
To amp or not to amp?
Jondon,If you are talking strictly home theater, chances are what you have is fine. You didn't list your gear, which makes suggestions difficult, if not SWAGs. If you listen to 2 channel through this, and you have speakers that can reproduce sound... 
Who makes JUST a processor????
Treyhoss -There are a few out that I know of, one box wonders. The Techincs AC series, probably less than $200, but I will tell you my favorite, is the McIntosh MDS-4. Now this this WILL cost anywhere from $900 (if lucky) to $1,200, but this unit ... 
Amp shuts down with a signal.........
Binaural -Well, I gave is a speaker ONLY load and it shut down. Therefor, next I swapped out the speaker cables and it worked for about 10 minutes. I disconnected it and reconnected my other amp for comparison listening. After another 10 minutes, ... 
Amp shuts down with a signal.........
Binaural, thanks.I placed this GTA-1 on top of the other amp I am using, which has not problems. Same ICs and same speaker cables.I keep switching back and forth, and only the GTA-1 has a problem, and only with a load. Odd?Dan 
What Have I done? Shorted an amp?
Thanks for all the insight and info. I did try Jeff Rowland Friday AM as SOON as I woke up and they were closed, they take Fridays off, nice.After talking to a couple of electricians, trying to find a matching fuse, they gave me 2 8 amp, 250v, fas... 
What Have I done? Shorted an amp?
Twl -Thanks for the suggestion. I don't touch stereo gear since I know NOTHING about it! I hate even removing screws, since it would 99.9% of the time mean nothing to me. THAT SAID, this is that 0.01% because after doing what you suggested, sure e... 
Screen Size vs. Room Size/Viewing Distance
I sit 14 feet from a 92x52 screen, and there is some graininess. Drop back to 15 feet, gone.Dan 
Want speakers for 700 but none sound good.
Here is a company for you, HALES! Remember them?Great speakers, and when they are available, very cheap.A heavy speaker, so shipping (and risk with them OOB) could take you out of the $700 range. I have seen a few 3's for $800! Not to mention, my ... 
Audiogon "RECORDINGS TO DIE FOR" list
Diana Krall, surely mentioned.
