| Building a new system / Advice on some products I think that 8-10K on an amp is at least double what you should be paying. There's a nice 3-channel Krell on Audiogon for $2400, and even that was "only" 5K new. I'd buy used - as you said, A high end amp last a long time.Forget the receiver - as ... | |
| Building a new system / Advice on some products As you probably know, B&W are power hungry. Make sure that receiver can put out enough. | |
| Some irrefutable truths about rock and roll Late to the thread here, but absolutely agree that a good song is a good song, regardless!Also, that the hardesat thing to do is write the perfect 3-minute pop/rock tune. Anybody can do a self-indulgent Inna Gadda da Vida, but think of what makes ... | |
| Afraid to buy new speakers Some NHT speakers are designed to go against the wall. I'm a fan (but don't own them). | |
| Some amplifier questions If you're using an Oppo, and not using a turntable or radio tuner, I suggest skipping the receiver and just getting a 3 or 5 channel amp. Get a 5 channel if you plan to upgrade later.The Oppo does very well directly into an amplifier, and the surr... | |
| Oppo BDP-105 audio input question. No, it doesn't have HDMI. Just wondering if it would make a difference if I did use the HDMI input. | |

| Oppo 105 in place of pre/pro I'm using the 105 analog outs to a 2-channel amp and a 3-channel amp. I'm only using the digital inputs, unlike Dbphd above.My thinking is, why add another component if it's not necessary? | |
| Tubes-Suffer for Sound CD?????? Discogs has no release for it. It's likely a boot. If you're concerned about sound quality, maybe the seller can cut you a minute of in in flac or mp3 so you can check it out. | |
| help me decide speakers for two channel audio I second the Egleston, but at that price point I'd LOVE Rockport. I think they're much more coherent...well, they sound better...than any of the 3 you listed. These are on Agon, but may be too big for youhttp://app.audiogon.com/listings/full-range... | |
| Any reason to even buy a new PJ at this juncture?? I'm in the same position. I was going to buy a Panasonic PT-AE8000, but now I think I'll buy a less expensive or used projector and wait for the 4k to come down in price. | |
| Where are the female Audiophiles? Bifwynne - Sorry to be off-topic, but I looked at your system. Are you interested in a pair of Reference 150s? | |
