| Full-range/horn loaded on a budget? Thanks for the suggestions. I realize I'm not going to find something in the same class as the Horning, just hopefully something similar in design/sound at a much lower price. I looked at Hornshoppe and have a hard time believing that speaker woul... | |

| Favorite 300B: Sophia vs KR Afc: Don't take offense. I was being facetious about the Shuguang Treasure Grade B being defective. I realize they're not. But the way the description is worded it comes off that way. What other 300B's ave you listened to? Have you heard vintage N... | |
| Favorite 300B: Sophia vs KR Is Shuguang Treasure Grade B ok? Reading the description they sound defective. $395 from Grant Fidelity. $510 for Grade A. My interest in this tube is growing as I'm not feeling Sophia at the moment (failed 274B) and would like to give another bra... | |
| Favorite 300B: Sophia vs KR Who sells the Shuguang Treasure Series? Is there a manufacturer website? And what about the Genelax Gold Lion PX300B? | |
| Favorite 300B: Sophia vs KR Charles1dad: No disrespect intended. I was only generally commenting on cheaper 300B production. I may in deed enjoy the sound of the Shuguang Treasure Series 300B. I just have a predilection for the original; NOS WE. And I haven't heard any other... | |
| Favorite 300B: Sophia vs KR I forgot about Emission Labs. I recall good things. I'm skeptical of the Shunguag(?) and most others in the $100-$200 range. It's not much to spend but can quickly add up from disappointing trials. One prerequisite is the tube be made to WE 300B s... | |
| Favorite 300B: Sophia vs KR I think most of these current productions have reliability issues; KR. EAT,... even Sophia from personal experience. I also have a hard time believing those reviews that praise the much cheaper versions as much as those who can't accept the gushin... | |

| Power Conditioner for Video under $500? Update:I ended up spending more and replaced the BPT CPC with a RSA Haley. Wow. I was shocked by the improvement with picture quality. I thought the 1080p plasma/BD looked stunning before but now it's unbelievable. Even broadcast 1080i improved. A... | |
| How to set up REL Subwoofer? I don't know. Best to contact Sumiko or REL direct. | |
| Blu-ray Battle: Marantz BD8002 vs BD7004 Update: Marantz BD800The picture quality just got better now that I'm using a Running Springs Audio Haley Elite PC. I couldn't believe the difference from the BPT CPC. The hues are more colorful, vibrant, and saturated with more depth and texture ... | |

| Favorite HDMI cable under $100/M? I am still elated over being back with the WW SS 5/2 HDMI cable after a few weeks (previously owned about 3 years ago). The PQ has improved. It's incredible with both HD broadcast and Blu-ray. I watched a BD which I had viewed with previous setup/... | |
| Remote control of hidden components? I returned the Harmony 300 remote and picked up the Harmony 600 (Target). More features and activities buttons, plus a customizable B&W screen for additional commands for both devices and activities. Not flawless, but much better control over ... |
