Dodson 218 vs. Accustic Arts Tube Dac II.
Have any of you listened to the Playback Designs? I've heard that it is one of the best too. 
Musical Subwoofer for 2-channel system
I've narrowed my search to either 2 JL Audio F113 Fathoms or two Velodyne DD 18s. I still haven't decided. Can anyone offer some help?I excited about the JL Audio for all the great press I've seen lately. I've noticed it is used in several members... 
Computer music server PC or Apple????
So if you were putting together a system today, it appears the overwhelming choice is a Mac over a PC?I was thinking of having a pc built with an audio case,(this puts your pc into a case that looks like an audio component, it looked much more lik... 
Is anyone else enjoying Monsoon desktop planars?
Yes the Monsoons and sub sound great. Too bad they went under. Maybe someone will revive them. They look like little Maggies. I always wondered if they would make larger floor ones. 
Anyone switich to all Signal Cable wired system?
Have any of you used or tried the Reality Cables in your system. I heard them once and was quite impressed.

What are the great CD releases? I'd like to add to my collection. 
Anyone know or heard Rane AC 22S Active Crossover?
Thanks Bob. Yes, JL Audio did put me onto this. Do you think this will be audiophile quality? I'm intrigued by the time delay aspect to align the drivers. Has anyone tried the DBX or NHT crossovers?Has anybody audtioned Bryston 10Bsub vs the March... 
Which is the top dog in "subs"?
Thanks for all your comments.I'm thinking of a pair of Fathoms 113s along with the purchase of the Velodyne SMS 1 might be the ticket. However how important to the sound is Velodyne's servo control system? I don't believe the Fathoms has this and ... 
Levinson 36 to 360s help needed
I think you'd find that in some ways the 360s might be better or equaled, but besides the better computational power the new DACS have, I doubt if many of the new units (unless they are very expensive) would provide the power supply, superior circ... 
Levinson 36 to 360s help needed
I really enjoyed my 360s when I owned one. It is a remarkable DAC. I don't think you'd be disappointed. 
Anyone switich to all Signal Cable wired system?
One reason I'm interested in switching cables in my system is that I've recently reversed my speakers from one end of the room to the other. They now benefit from no interference from the HVAC system. The Salons loved having the higher cieling (al... 
The Alan Parson's Project
No DVD Audio, but I purchased a Japanese pressing of " I Robot" over 20 years ago. It is an amazing recording in many ways and my reference for what "I Robot" should sound like. Until recenctly, none of the Alan Parson CDs measured up. In fact the... 
The Alan Parson's Project
Where do you get these versions? I just bought and listened to "I Robot and Eye in the Sky" and they do sound much more like the old lps do which I still own. 
Reality Cables vs Audio Horizon
I briefly heard a set of Reality interconnects vs. Nordost Valhalla and was very impressed with what I heard. The Reality cables were really close. I'm just wondering if what others have heard and compared them with.
