| Any info on Design Acoustics? I remember Design Acoustics from "back in the day" and I remember them as being a good quality mass market speaker. If I recall correctly, I think they were a very good value speaker. Not the best, but sounded good for the price.Enjoy,TIC | |
| What A/V receiver to buy? Luvshack,You mentioned that you already have the Sunfire 5-channel amp. Do you really want an HT receiver (pre-amp/processor, plus 5-7 channels of amplification) or do you want an HT pre-amp/processor and plan to use the Sunfire for amplification?... | |

| Great music but poor recording recommendations. U2's "All That You Can't Leave Behind". Really excellent rock music, but a recording that will peel paint! I listened to it in my car today on a factory system and it was still WAY too hot (treble) for my taste. It is nearly unlistenable on my hom... | |
| Which Patricia Barber album floats yer boat? I've only heard maybe 3-4 Patricia Barber albums, so I'm no expert. However, I do have an opinion!I do not care for any of the studio albums I've heard. I do like the live "Companion" CD quite a bit. Barber does not have a great voice or much voca... | |

| Can a vintage piece over 40 years old be Highend Humm, Quad ESL57's and 63's can be some of the most pleasing speakers I've ever hear when used within their limitations. I guess that makes them high-end, even by todays standards.Enjoy,TIC | |
| Weird DVD Player Problem Do you have a multi-channel HT setup or a 2-channel setup? It sounds like you have the DVD player set up for multi-channel output, but don't have the system (or the setup) to support it.Almost all dialog comes from the center channel in a multi-ch... | |

| Best Concert Film Humm, I'm surprised that nobody has yet mentioned James Taylor's "Live at the Beacon Theater". It is a very good performance and I love the excellent video transfer and 5.1 channel mix. It really looks and sounds like being there! Most excellent i... | |

| Who Has The Best service department Unsound,I guess YMMV is the rule! I had issues with 2 different Arcam products distributed by ASL. Both were purchased second hand and I sold them here on AudiogoN. Both arrived broken when I sold them and both were repaired gratis by ASL even tho... | |
| optical or coaxial ? your thoughts on Monster I agree with some of the previous posters. Buy cables from a small manaufacturer, not a big corporate Monster than has a huge marketing budget. How much extra does Moster have to charge in order to pay for advertising and the naming rights to that... | |
