Advice Required
Call Wally - check his feedback at underwoodwally - he is one of the designers. I find him VERY HONEST, and willing to explain his product. Tell him I sent you (Ed Wilfong, shaqspack). PS - I have a REF 10 - is DTS worth it?? ewilfong@mindspring.com) 
Hiss: B&K Separates and B&W Speakers
Hi Have B&K Pre and amp 7250 though. No prob with hiss. Similar problem with Parasound was "cured" with decent (Monster 3500) line conditioner, but I agree, return or at least have it bench tested. 
Best Digital Cable around $100 used
TICE @ about $150, I think, from factory. Have had MIT 3, Monster, Wireworld Gold, and this is CLEARLY the best for me. It really surprised me because I have it in a very modest set-up 
Soliloquy subwoofer
I am also interested, so if anyone has one of these, we would like to hear 
HELP!!! SPEAKER CABLE???
I owned (and just sold) a set of IXOS 6003. A great bargain. It upgraded my modest system of B&W 601S2 and CC so much, I put in Nordost (Red Dawn on Center, Flatline on mains) and Improve even more, but I need no Bass from these speakers. I ju... 
Center Channel - Help be choose
Thanks to all....My resolution so far.... Do nothing. Interestingly, my local B&W dealer thinks it's the B&K pre-pro that is the weak link in the "big" system, altho' I think eventually I'll have to have B&W. May also go the next step ... 
Center Channel - Help be choose
OK -should be help ME choose. (see why I need advice) 
Center Channel - Help be choose
Thanks so far....I am interested in anyone that has heard or owns teses for opinions. One other consideration is regarding B&W / Monitor Audio. I have a similar situation to Kweisner in my second system. Have 601s2 and cc6. A B&W upgrade h... 
BEST Digital Cable
I have been impressed with the Tice, which if you order from factory, is reasonable (150??). Also Wireworld Gold Eclipse seems neutral. Have them in differnt systems to haven't compared directly. 
preamp-poweramp hiss (loud)
Try hooking units to different circuit (from different breaker) in house. A monster 3500 helped when I had similar problems w/ amp. Get the balance control checked. Only thing if it is not the balance, you have left and right out of phase with eac... 
Best DVD player in $500-$1000 Range
Have Pioneer Elite -05. Can get around 500 w/luck. Sony 7700 would be second choice. Have a sony 3300 (?) too. Fine player. Me, I would think about future and look at progressive scans if you don't mind going closer to $1000. 
Pioneer PD65 CD Remote Help Please?
Agree with george. Also, ask you dealer to help or go to the pronto download site to see if someone has codes. email me @ GBPS@rcsis.com if you need that link. 
B&W 302, Paradigm Titans, or PSB Alpha's
I own Paradigms for my main setup and small B&W (601 S2) for 2nd system. Both are great. I love the B&W "sound", but tend to brighter and more forward than Para. Paradigm more neutral. Can't really go wrong. Me, the B&W. I compared the... 
Best upgrade for the money ?
Might want to look at paradigm speakers (great bargains and I have seen several steals here on AG)and a power condition (just for the general protection and help in sound. made a great differnce- If you want a reasonable price, monster 3500 is fin...
