HDMI Cable Mrtennis...I really do not have any suggestions. I am about a month into my move to components that have hdmi connections so I have very little experience. This is why I started the thread actually. I realize that it will come down to trying some ... | |
HDMI Cable Also....please do not turn this thread into a debate about whether hdmi cables should or should not make a difference. I have demonstrated enough evidence for me that they do and started this thread to explore it with others who share that belief.... | |
Thiel CS3.7 and CS2.4 comparisons? Also a huge Thiel fan here. One thing you may want to consider before upgrading to the 3.7 is demoing a Thiel sub with your 2.4's. I am not generally a proponent of subwoofer's in 2 channel systems however Thiel is an exception. It's one of the ve... | |
Wilson audio Maxx2, i am thinking of getting a I have them in a room 14x17x9.5 high and they perform extremely well. I talked with Wilson about this before I bought them, give them a call.

Room Treatments I relate so much to the OP and I think it is a very common issue. I look at many system pics and wonder what the heck guys are doing with all those traps/tubes/diffusers/panels etc! From my experience, they all have their own sound and more often ... | |
Best Rock Album in 2010 Adding Junip "Fields" to this list. Can't get this one off my system these days. Fans of Jose Gonzalez "Veneer" + "In Our Nature" may enjoy this more elaborate side of him. Still sparse and unmistakable...adding and organ player, bass and drums, e... | |
Need to select a pair of main speakers for HT I am in the process of doing the same. I'm setting up a little 5.1 system on our third floor and trying to keep it simple. Hard to do when you are a crazy audiophile who has been dumping idiotic sums in his main system for many many years! Anyway.... | |
Krell S-150M Mono Blocks Hello Ben...I have had a few Krell's over the years and keep going back to the FPBc/cx's. Although the more recent units are still all great amps with some of the better build quality, there just seems to be something missing. Given the used price... | |
Best Rock Album in 2010 Soldersplatter...That Lara Marling is a great album. She is quite the talent and a perfect match for Mumford and Sons. I think it is a special one that many folks missed. | |

Best recording audiophile level albums of 2010 Rbrowne...If you like Balmorhea, you may also enjoy The Clogs. | |
Best recording audiophile level albums of 2010 Wow. This is shaping up to be a great thread for me. First the WIll Oldham recommendation and now a new J.Tillman. Nice. Thanks for that. Vacillando Territory Blues is a heavy rotation album for me. Look forward to Singing Ax. | |
Best recording audiophile level albums of 2010 Dgarretson...thanks for the Will Oldham recommendation. I missed that release but will be tracking it down today. He's one of my favorite artists but one thats hard to keep up with! | |
Best free Apps for music.... The best app I have found is Subsonic. It's a music player that also will stream from my home server. This allows me to access any piece of music I have in my collection without storing a single file on my phone. It can stream using wireless or ce... |
