If you have ever bought anything from HSU research
yes I bought a sub from hsu, after reading glowing reviews, my mistake, the sub was not as the reviews indicated, so I sent the sub back, I had to pay for shipping both ways, there are company's like svs that do cover shipping, bottom line is take...

No I am a audiophile for the love of the outdoors, DUH

I would definitely say the svs, after reading all the hype about hsu on another sight, I ordered 1, lets just say that the hsu was not as advertised, I lost $69 dollars on shipping and then another $89 sending it back, I would sugest the svs as th... 
SVS Ultra Monitors or Golden Ears Aon3 ?
a little update on the aons, I am so impressed by their sound quality, after years of spending thousands on this hobby, these speakers make me feel like a fool waisting so much money, also, the bass is so good and correct, I am using them at full ...

I have a ssp 600, although sonicly it is excellent, I find the tiny video screen on it to be useless and gimicly, it is absolutely useless as you can not see it from a seating position. I have been on hold in upgrading the 600, with all the bugs a... 
home theater processor suggestions?
I would be wary of the emotiva, I owned their umc 1 and it never worked right despite numerous software upgrades, their amps are a great value, but I would definitely avoid their prepro's. 
NAD HD2 AV surround Sound preamp processor
I would avoid the emotiva, the umc prepro still has problems with bass management, despite numerous attemts to fix it, if they can't get their current pre pro working right, I would be very wary of their new one that is comming out, 
Anthem AVM/20 upgrade to Integra or Marantz??

About to buy Aerial 9s, BUT want to ask first...
in reference to the dali's, I auditioned the helicons, although they sounded very good, they are way to directional for me, if you sit off axis they lose alot, personally I am saving towards the new aerial 7t.
