| Which amp? Jason,You'll need to provide a lot more information before anyone can make a rational recommedation. You need to provide a list of your other system components, including source components, amp/pre-amp and speakers. Tell us a little about the room... | |

| if Sony had been around earlier - format wars Sony is just a Corporation that manufactures products. They can't and don't make you purchase their products.

| Getting rid of harsh, shrill treble Agreed with Tvad. There are too many unknown variables to answer your question. It could be the room, speakers, speaker setup, CD player or amplification. A complete list of all system components and a description of the room are needed in order t... | |

| What? No Norah Jones New CD Thread? OK, I picked it up today for the $9.99 introductory price. So now I'm qualified to answer the original poster. The question was "How is it". The answer is "boring". Sounds very much like the previous two. Actually, I think it sounds like a combina... |
