| Silverline Speaker Opinion Gary,You are correct, in that I was suggesting Audiopoints under floorstanders. My experience with monitors is that Blu-tak or similar is a good idea to reduce probability of tragedy spillage. Your stands will benefit from good footers if they don... | |
| Silverline Speaker Opinion I was a happy Silverline owner for a few years. Very well balanced and pretty easy to drive. One suggestion is Audiopoints made a big improvement over the stock footers. Alan was always kind and helpful with questions. Cheers,Spencer | |
| Is the word 'Integrated' that hard to spell? It's true for many people English is a second (or subsequent) language and the many homophoBes make it very difficult to learn.Generally speaking, I'm with the "I blame auto-correct" crowd. Cheers,Spencer | |

| Decision Decision Decision between Cary and Audio Research Sound Eddy, In general the Carys sound similar to the CJ stuff that you are moving away from. I'd suggest trying the LS7 with a better amp like advertisedAds for Rogue Monoblocks 150s or the Music Reference RM200. IMHO, monoblocks will help with sounds... | |

If you are playing SACD discs on your Oppo 95, I believe a... |
