| Speaker Reco Sound characteristics - honestly I'm not sure how to describe this.. Perhaps I've not listened to enough systems.I agree. Nobody can make a legit speaker recommendation if all you have is what music you listen to and at what volume. You need to ... | |
| The extinction of human interaction takes yet another step forward... Some very good and thought-provoking responses. I have to say that validating online audio shows using porn as an analogy was very unexpected, and effective. I agree that if I can’t make it to an audio show it’d still be interesting to glean wha... | |

| Considering ditching 5.1 for a soundbar; suggestions? Please forgive me, I just can’t help myself. You’ve got a great space to merge your 2-channel and HT into one system and have the best of both worlds with no more added complexity. I’d suggest selling the Klipsch L/R/C speakers and getting a bette... | |
| DAC That Punches Above Its Price Point I’d recommend taking a look at the Musician Pegasus. | |

| DAC That Punches Above Its Price Point Need to know your budget. | |
| Headphones as a nearfiled listening source?!... Prolly was due to the fact that you can’t get more near field than headphones. Duh. | |

| Speaker Upgrade ... Please Help Me The Joseph Audio Perspectives will be a big upgrade across the board and are quite nice looking as well, if that matters. Best of luck. | |
| Monitors with Built In Center Channels Get rid of the built-in and all your problems just melt away. They are the root of all Audio/video evil. | |
| Splendor D9’s.2 vs B&W 803 D2 which I own The B&Ws don’t connect with me at all, so my money’d be on the Spendors that by all accounts are excellent. From my own experience having compared Joseph Audio speakers directly to B&W the JAs are better on all fronts and sound more like ... |
