| Silver vs. Cooper speakers cables It is true that gold will not corrode like copper. Gold has more resistance, so you have to use a thicker gauge of solid gold to get the same resistance as copper. If you take care of copper cables, seal the connections well, clean them from time ... | |

| Best Complete HomeTheater USED for $5000.00 >>a QUALITY 2 channel setup is much better than 5 or more channels of mediocrity, ANY DAY!!<<Right on. Also, just want to reiterate -- if you go to a 5 or 7 channel system for movies, most of the sound, a lot of the time, will be comin... | |

| Music from hard drive better than CD? >>Rsbeck: Do you run the Apogee mini Dac into a pre-amp or straing into a set of powered monitors?<<I run it straight into powered monitors. There is no need for a pre-amp. This is one of the things I like about this set-up. The Apogee... | |
