High End Monitors I agree with Phaelon! The JMLab/Focal Micro Utopia BE is a fantastic sounding speaker. I heard them in a friends system and it was the best disappearing act I've ever heard. I'm a fan of acoustic folk, singer-songwriter and rock music, he is a cla... | |
Contrast Ratio? Joeb,I am also considering both of the current Panasonic Plasmas to replace my old Panasonic SDTV plasma. You are correct that they list the contrast ratios as 20,000 for one and 30,000 for the other, but I believe they list the dynamic contract r... | |
Fritzspeakers Sprink,That Shanling unit is really cool. I've seen/heard it a couple of times and I would love to own one for a bedroom/office system. You could use any high-eff. speaker of your choice, including the budget models from Fritz or Tekton.Another gr... | |

Stewart Copeland, Incredible Humm, haven't listed to The Police in a while 'cause most of my Police stuff is on vinyl and I don't have my TT set up right now. So, I pulled out my copy of "The Singles" on CD and gave it a listen. WOW! I never really paid much attention to Cope... | |
Paradigm Studio 100 v.3 + Marantz sr5001 Coman61,Many newer 7.1 AVRs offer the bi-amp mode using the surround L&R Rear amp channels to power either the top or bottom of a bi-ampable speaker. Since many people will only use 2, 2.1 or 5.1 speaker setups in their system, the unused surr... | |
Speaker Dimple I've used the tape and vacuum methods over the years. For me, vacuum was easiest. As Elizabeth stated, just get close, don't touch the speaker dome. Use a guard of some type or rest your arm against the face of the speaker, hold the vacuum nozzle ... | |
PC Based Audio - How? Marcus,Using a MAC laptop is probably the easiest way to do PC based audio. Yep, you can take the digital output from your MAC directly into your processor. You just need to rip your music to iTunes using Apple lossless or AIFF. Don't forget to tu... | |
