| Any Problem using Plastic Covers for CD ? I have been using storage binders for the last four years with no problems whatsoever. When the CD collection topped 1200, it became a no brainer ... use 10 or so binders that will fit on a shelf or two of a bookcase or buy several bookcases. Digi... | |
| SACD -- Hybrid, Single layer, Stereo, Multi? If by your question you mean ... can I pop a multichannel SACD into my SACD player and play it through my 2 channel system and my SACD player will recognize the SACD layer(s) of the disc and play the SACD ... the answer is "yes." You will just hea... | |
| Has anyone tried Signal Cable? I have been using Signal speaker cables and interconnects for the past 6 months and I like their performance very much ... very neutral sounding with Musical Fidelity and NAD integrated amplifiers. I have never tried one of Frank's power cords, bu... | |
| DVD's with only audio capabilities...huh? Left out something else ... both the DVD Audio & audio DVD Video discs are not playable on a CD only player. This is why there are more "universal" machines making their way into the market. Most consumers do not have the appetite, let alone t... | |
| DVD's with only audio capabilities...huh? Just a further note ... to get the full benefits of DVD Audio, you would still require a separate DVD Audio player. When you play DVD Audio discs on your standard DVD player, you get playback from the 2.0 DTS layer ... you do not get the full blow... | |

| Yet another SACD question My apologies if I may be simplifying the issue, but here goes ... I have a 2 channel set-up (Musical Fidelty A3 integrated amplifier) with a SONY SCD555ES SACD changer. I just put in the SACD and just press play. The SONY defaults to the SACD laye... | |
| Is 3 CH with a HT pre/pro better than 2 Channel Yyz:Quite frankly, put off buying any HT equipment until you move. In the interim, if your DVD player offers virtual 3D surround options (like my SONY 506) experiment with those settings for "center channel like" sound. I have a similar sized room... | |

| Options for Integrated amp? cfmartin:It can cut two ways ... a top flight amp can bring out the best in a speaker and a top flight speaker can make a passable amp seem better than it is. My experiences with the B&W 300 & 600 series speakers are that they emphasized t... | |
| Options for Integrated amp? Is the Rotel lacking in some area that you are looking to improve? The Rotel is actually a good choice with B&W speakers, in general (check out the Rotel reviews in any of the British Magazines, like What Hi-Fi) and the Arcam CD72 is a nice un... | |
| What song says something about you? The song, "Where I Live," by folk singer, Bill Staines (From the album Sandstone Cathedrals). Most of my career (27 years) has involved extended business travel and there are times when I am more homesick than not and I reflect about the journey .... | |

| First System Amp . . . My ADCOM 545 from 1989 was decommissioned this past December. I had it paired with an ADCOM 500 II preamp/tuner; SONY SCD 555ES SACD changer; and Acoustic Research 302 Classic Series speakers and was very pleased with the set-up. I replaced it wit... | |
