which speaker?
Yep, I'm with Bigjoe on the Dq-10's...I have owned them years ago. Paradign, Psb, B&W come to mind...also, maybe Axiom and VMPS. If you can build a kit...great bang for buck can be had.Dave 
Cool Amps Needed for Eggleston Savoy's
One of our guys at the Apogee speaker users forum replaced his Pass 600's with H2O ICE mono's. There is a review of the H2O amps on this forum.Dave 
Do Any High End Speakers Boogie/Rock? BW 804 Blues
You need a couple of subs Jeff...bass is the foundation upon which rock is built, No boogie without the slam factor.Dave 
can i pass rear out to main input on hk avr20ii
My Onkyo had pre-out/main-in for all channels (jumper pins). Once you removed the jumpers the split was complete...I am thinking this is your problem.Dave 
can i pass rear out to main input on hk avr20ii
Oh? Do all channels have main-in/pre-outs? A few years ago I had an Onkyo receiver...I recall doing this and it worked fine. Once the amps are freed from their respective pre-amp outs...jumpers removed, it should work fine.The rear pre section sho... 
Upsampling..........
" Funny you should ask about the algorithm. I was thinking about this last night (because I really have no life !)"Thanks for the laugh Sean...that was funny in an Audiophile sort of way, my wife didn't get it though.Dave 
Sonic Impact T-Amp giant killer?
Yep, it's this weeks rage at the Audio Asylum forum. The Audio Circle forum has a lot of posts on it also if you do a search over there.I may pick one up for my wife to use at her computer.Dave 
can i pass rear out to main input on hk avr20ii
I don't see a problem with that...run the rear pre-out to the front main in as you are thinking. Don't forget to change the speaker cables also.Dave 
Krell amps and Tube Preamps - enemies?
OldpetI've not had any problems. The only pre-amps I have read about giving Krells problems were BAT pre-amps.This could have been an isolated problem even at that I would think? I have used my Mantissa with my Ksa-250 and Kav-500 both at one time... 
Krell amps and Tube Preamps - enemies?
There is a used Audioprism Mantissa (black) for sale on Audiogon...it's only single ended though.I have used one with my Krell...great sound quality that takes nothing away from the Krells.Dave 
Does it matter what power amp i get?
It does matter but as long as your amp can drive your speakers with ease your pre-amp is more important as it has the larger effect on the over-all sound...one of the reasons why passive pre-amps are so in-favor with audiophiles.Dave 
Apogee Grand: best speaker ever ?
Check this picture out!!!! They look rather large for a dealer show room Richard...I'll guess that setup was a problem.http://audioworld.com/sw/Forum1/HTML/004061.htmlDave 
Apogee Grand: best speaker ever ?
Mr. Corey Greenberg wrote about it in Stereophile vol. 14 no. 8, page 87"The Best Sound at the Show: a group of one I've saved the best for last. Because while there were several really fine-sounding rooms at the Chicago CES, one speaker stood out... 
Need to tame bass
Mark your room at 1/3 and 1/4th the distance between the front and rear wall...move the speakers between these two measurments as you listen to deep bass.Make or buy some corner bass traps.Dave 
Sub for my system? Please help
I would add another ep-175 to the system. A pair will add greater output and blend much better with your system than any single sub could in your price range.With the money left over pick-up the Outlaw audio ICBM bass management X-over and run the...
