| New Product......Intelligent Box Dr. Marja and Dr. Henk? Christ, they'll give a degree to *anyone* in Holland! I know when I see their names at the top of a review, it's time to strap on the hip waders, the bullshit will flow deep and freely.And did you read the part at the end: ... | |
| Is it BAD to place CDP/DVP on top of RCVR? Despite the hue and outcry I'm sure to hear, here's my advice - place the CDP on top of the receiver and monitor the situation. If the CDP or receiver seem to get too hot, take it off. It really isn't going to make much difference, sound-wise, des... | |

| Help: speakers or amp to blame? You might as well do as the first respondent suggested and hook up your Acurus to your 9NTs. At least you will KNOW how the speakers sound with a beefier amp. If the equipment is too heavy for you, get your wife to do it - ba-da bing!-RW- | |

| Jethro Tull...any cd's to stay away from? Do you have a multi-channel system? If so, I can recommend some DTS versions of their most popular albums that sound pretty good: Thick As A Brick, Standup, Benefit, and A Passion Play. Auqalung doesn't sound so good. Contact me offlist if you are... | |
| center channel I would recommend staying within the ML line and model, if possible, for the rear speakers. You will generally get a much smoother front-back transition by doing so. I know my (now) all-Gallo surround system benefited immensely when I replaced my ... | |
| OK, record is now clean, how about the Stylus? Despite my earlier promise to walk away from this one, well here I go....Dan_Ed, I was not the one who "came out swinging".
