HFSG - Don't you need to put them on super cloud pillows or something too? :) 
Horning owners what amps have you used?
11-14-11: Trelja"Again, the answer is to return to one of the tenets of the Scientific Method, to observe the differences of two items being compared, holding ALL other variables constant. I admit it's a difficult task, and few have the ability, o... 
I need advice on a good value for speakers
11-03-11: Manoterror"Dealer demo is part of their sunk cost. Besides, if they treat you well, you will refer, etc. Demo, demo...and demo!"At first glance I was tempted to scream "No! Don't audition and then buy oinline."But - Would a B&M deale...

At what volume do you typically listen?
11-02-11: Mwheelerk"My unit is supposed to adjust volume in db and using a spl meter in conjunction with my volume control it appears reasonably accurate within +/- 1db."Interesting. I believe this is just a coincidence because the actual db at yo... 
Natural, musical, dynamic phono preamp 700 used
Another one that may be worthy of consideration is the Musical Surroundings Phonomena Nova. Runs on batteries, charges with AC. New @ $1K, would be right in your sweet spot used. I have one and like it, but don't have much experience with other ph... 
non redbook CD's

Zu Omen or Tekton Lore
Well I had 1.6s years ago, same room but completely different gear. For me it was the fact that in my small room 12' x 13' x 9' the Lores are a better fit. And I did the whole flea power amp thing, once I did that there was no going back...for now... 
On a mission for more BASS
I tried bi-amping a couple of times with other speakers and the results weren't good because the 2 amps weren't balanced. So depending on which amp I put where, there was either too much bass or not enough. Of course my attempt was half hearted, a...

Actually difference between class A and AB?
10-23-11: Soundlock"If you're not one of the elitist that wont have anything but a class A amp, suggest you try a Magtech amp by Sanders Sound Systems.Has a 30 day no risk trial. What does one have to lose?"Just to clarify, the Magtech is not a cl... 
Upgrading Fuses
Dougmc - What you say does make sense, however there is always another point of view.One way for this company to make it's upgrades seem more valuable would be to make other somewhat similar upgrades seem more valuable. IOW - They sell better resi... 
What does mist racking actually sound like?
Don't you mean grooved omage?But seriously, it's a good question. Inquiring minds want to know. 
Live Performances Gone Awry
John Cougar then Jethro Tull then The Who in 1982 Boulder CO, the Who's farewell tour.Cougar had probably 1 or 2 albums at that time I guess. He started first in the early afternoon maybe 1 or 2 pm. It's Boulder in the summertime, people playing f...
