| Have you purchased from New York Sound ? I have not dealt with them, but from what I gather by reading a few posts on Audio Asylum, it seems like you are paying for shipping from the country of manufacture. In certain cases like the Shanling CD players, you receive a CD player designed f... | |
| Rear Ported Speakers, Backs to Wall? As stated in previous posts, rear wall placement almost always requires sealed box/acoustic suspension speakers or front ported speakers. Are you looking at both monitors and floorstanders? NHT speakers match up very nicely with NAD amplifiers. Tr... | |
