| Best Sounding used amplifier under 1000??? No doubt. Take a look. The aother BEAUTY of this amp, being a 4 channel amp, you can BIAMP you speakers and pretty sure you will not find cleaner, more robust power than the Madrigal/Citation 7.1. NOW, if HT is not a concern, roll with the tubes!Dan | |
| Which would you buy? Goldnut - This is a VERY easy answer! Lexicon DC-1. I have owned both for long periods of time, the EAD is better in 2 channel, but since you state 'primarily home theater' there is NO better processor (and I would challenge those that say the MC-... | |
| How many of us have worked in audio stores? Edwards Home Entertainment and Design for 2 years, not long enough!Dan | |
| What's the best 5 channel for less then 1K? Here is an amplifier suggestion:Buy FOUR NAD 2400's (about $250 each) and bridge (or if possible, BIAMP) two for right and left, bridge (or if possible, BIAMP) the third for a center channel and use the fourth for surrounds!LOADS of high current o... | |
| Hi-end DVD/CD Machine vs. Hi-end CD Player/Transpo FYI -If DTS DVDs are important to you, avoid the Faroudja (Toshiba based 3006) DVD player. It does not send the DTS signal, but a great transport.Dan | |
| Dead advice on high end stereo/HT mix Keis,If you are looking for a dedicated home theater preamp, there is no better unit or value than the Lexicon DC-1.These can be had preowned in the $1,000-1,400 range.You will not find better processing than this for the price.I would actually ma... | |
| Carver Silver 7t's JAMESWEI and SEAN !!Thanks for the GREAT insight! These amplifiers have a very warm sound and it makes sense now. I am pleasantly surprised that years later these amplifiers can still sound so good. I also understand he tried to make his $40K amps... | |
| Safe audiogon transactions; lowering the bar. This is a great topic! I will explain my understanding.Example:Buyer sends payment to the seller for a preowned Velodyne HGS-18 subwoofer.SELLER has both the sub AND money! ACCORDING TO INSURANCE COMPANIES (AllState, Farmers, etc.) if the unit is ... | |
| Best used solid state amp for Energy C8 1500 Max Subsonic -There is one amplifier I would highly recommend that was no where on your list. I like Bryston amplifier, but you should not pass up the Citation 7.1. It is a Madrigal product and is a 4 channel amplifier. 150x4 into 8 ohms, you have man... | |
| Chiro 5.1 and C-800 The EAD is, but apparently, some of these 5.1's are only DTS ready where some are actually DTS. Mine is not!Thanks fot the help!Dan | |
| Best "Used" Audiophile speakers for 1000-1500 Well, my two cents:The B&W 802II is a great choice, I agree! However, they do require substantial power, clean at that. With this said, the 805's for about $850 AND a Sunfire True sub (about $650-750) is EXTREMELY tought to beat AND the 805's ... | |
| Plinius 250III or the Levinson 333 Well, I listened to the Plinius IV but not the Levinson.The IV sounds MUCH better than the McIntosh MC-352 I use now! The sound stage is incredible! It completely opened up, maybe because of the autoformers?The Plinius has an enormous amount of re... | |
| Great Progessive Scan and Great CD Playback? For all the people stating individual CD transports are best for CD listening, has anyone listened to the McIntosh MLD-7020 (LD/CD) as a transport? It is apparently one of the best kept secrets in CD players. The transport is incredible, wonderful... | |

| Has anyone purchased a Mitsubishi big screen TV? The Mitsubishi television are wonderful! The picture is wonderful, completely HD ready, you can't go wrong. I bought my TV as a floor model from the GoodGuys here in SF. Part of my negotiating was a 7 year in home warranty, which includes all the ... |
