| Commonly mentioned speaker brands? I think that names or manufactures can go two ways. One is people who like what they own will always promote them and beg for approval from the ranks. Then there is the other side where people will continue to bash certain manufacture. Some time f... | |

| Please settle a bet! I say pop the scotch and pour a couple tall glasses for a long listening session. If you finish the bottle I think you can declare each a winner and you will be in such a happy place you wont care or remember why you are there! | |
| Let me end the Premp/Amplifier sound debate ... Lost in your logic is quality of the build. Yes you can buy an amp that will sound great for a low price point but with an inferior build quality how long will it last and how dependable will it be? I can buy a entry level suv that can get me down... | |
| Wanting to upgrade my streaming sound quality. You have 1000 mg speed in that you are cutting in have by using wifi. First step is to make sure your streamer is hard wired to you net with cat 7 wire. This alone made a big difference in my sound quality. | |
