| CDs obsolete in 5 years? The RIAA will kill it with all kinds of copy protection schemes just like they kill all new formats. | |
| B&W N805 vs. Von Schweikert VR1 I owned a pair of B&W805n's also. A few months ago I was looking to upgrade. Listened to about a dozen different manufacturers. Ended up with B&W805N Signitures. More detail, better mids, more "rightness" to the music. They are a big impro... | |
| SACD Opinions: Gimmick? Like it? Don't? Why? I have a Modded Philips 963SA playing throught an Anthem AVM20, Aragon 8008BB and B7W 805N Signitures. THe sound of SACD is an improvement over redbook CD. The problem I have with it is lack of software and high prices. Lately, some reasonably pri... | |
| Upgading my H/T system - What to do??????? I've owned a Denon AVR3300 and was really happy with it. IMO it's the best surround receiver that Denon made. I currently own an Anthem AVM20, with aragon amp, and they will bury me with it. I don't think that there is anything wrong with your sys... | |
| High Definition? Is HD cable available in your area? This might be a cheaper alternative. Comcast HD cable offers 8 regular channels and 2 premium in HD, but they don't always broadcast in HD. | |
| Recommendation for multi-ch pre/pro Anthem AVM2 or AVM20. I've owned both and they have a very tube like presentation. I use mine primary for 2 channel music with an Aragon 8008BB and B&W 805n signitures. | |
| Anybody able to compare Athem AVM/Sunfire G III ? I aslo used Cardas Cross SE and AQ Viper balanced cables. In addition, I also used SAR and Aragon 2004MKII ampliefiers in place of the Aragon 800BB. The Aragon 2004 was SE only and the SAR was run in SE and Balanced. When I listened to the Anthem ... | |
| Anybody able to compare Athem AVM/Sunfire G III ? All balanced using Cardas Golden Cross IC's. I did turn of the auto select feature. I ran into another use with the Sunfire. If you have both an analog and digital inputs going to the same source input on the Sunfire, it always defualts to the dig... | |
| Anybody able to compare Athem AVM/Sunfire G III ? I recently had both in my system hooked up to Aragon 8008BB amp and B&W 805N speakers. The Anthem AVM20 is in a different class. The Carver sounds flat and lifeless (IMO). It also has this annoying auto input switching feature that gets confus... | |
| 5 speaker systems and room size I have a pair of B&W LM1's that are a cousin to the VM1's; very happy with them. My main speakers are B&W 805N Signitures. I would stay away from the velodyne sub. I think an RBH would be a better match or one of B&W's own subs. | |
| Review: Meadowlark Audio Kestrel 2 Speaker I auditioned the 2's a few weeks ago. And, I have to agree with a lot of the points your mention. I auditioned them using a Rega Jupiter, Rega Pre and the big C-J SS Amp. I have to agree that there is a lot of detail in the tweeter and the imgae p... | |
| Speaker suggestions. I listened to a couple of different models, but do not remember the model numbers. I have a friend that is a "hi-end" dealer and he recommended them. I listened to his a a few other pairs in a local store and thought that there hasn't a good inter... | |
| Surround Processor Choice I second the Anthem AVM20 recommendation. I've had mine for about 1 month and could not be happier. | |
| Speaker suggestions. I've owned the Swans, Klipsch Promedia 2.1 and I've heard the monsoons. THe swans win hands down. The only thing I did not like about them is that they are a little large for computer speakers. | |
| Which speaker is best for my Krell amp? I must disagree with the statements above about the B&W's. First, the B&W's are the most expensive speakers on your list. I've owned 802N's and currently own 805N's. In my experience with B&W's, they require good upstream electronics, ... |
