| IMO the two best tracks to demo or test any system Take a listen to cut 1. (The Saint Louis Blues) on Huge Laurie's "Didn't It Rain" CD. Really interesting album. | |
| Tony Bennett I like what Bennett quietly does with his money to inspire younger generations. | |
| Are We Talking CDs And CDPs Out Of Existence? I bet I'm not the only guy that did this, but when records disappeared, I sold my SOTA Cosmos with an SME 5 arm and Koetsu cartridge for next to nothing. If CD's disappear, this time around I'll be a buyer of a knock your socks off CDP. | |
| Recommend me a warm sounding 5 channel power amp The Theta Intrepid 5 channel amp is a bargain at its price. | |
| Best Speakers for 10' x 12' room? My understanding of the Duette II's is they're designed strictly for near wall placement versus the original Duette's that have the option for either near wall or free space placement. I picked up a pair of the original Duette's about a two months... | |
| WARM 5 channel amp - suggestions? A Theta Intrepid is a lot of 5 channel amp for the price. I think new they're going for around $1,800. They run cool no matter how hard they're pushed. I've had mine for around six years and while I've up-graded most everything else, the Intrepid ... | |
| I know, there is no 'best', but... Theta Casablanca is your best bet for both HT and 2 Channel stereo. | |

| Questionable Estate Auction practice I don't do auctions but this is the craziest thing I ever heard. What would the auctioneer do in the event the hammer came down and the winning bidder refused to pay unless the auctioneer lowered the bid price? | |
| Does Avalon speakers have a house sound? I ran my Avalon Ascendant's with Clear Day Double Shotgun speaker cables and the treble was never "brittle". | |
| Audio Magic Pulse Gen products Ozzy & Brownsfan... What size PEA's are you guys using?Thanks | |
| bookshelf speakers The Wilson Duette's are specifically made to be placed right up against a rear wall / housed in a cabinet or on a bookshelf. If in the future you want to move them out into the room, all you have to do is change the supplied external resister and ... | |
| What's Up with ATI? Others outsource the production of their amps to ATI. ATI as said above owns Theta Digital. The Casablanca is Theta's preamp/processor and their universal CD/DVD is the Compli Blu. | |
| What power conditioner will help in my situation? I had that same problem before I put in a dedicated line. The switch for the ceiling fan was one that allowed you to increase or decrease the fan speed. I changed the switch to a simple on/off switch and the hum disappeared. | |
| Does it bother you? A friend of mine records and mixes live jazz in the USA an Europe. He told me that he's oftentimes afraid to plug in his equipment because the clubs are in such poor repair. I said "junk in... junk out". Long story short, he purchased a BPC condit... |
