| Down to 2 speakers & I can't decide, ProAc D48R vs Spendor D9 So you've heard the ProAcs and the ATCs, and I assume/hope you listened to them with your own music. What did you think? I personally love both these speakers, but for very different reasons. If I'm looking for dynamics and the feeling of a liv... | |
| Bowers and Wilkins Htm72 My first instinct was to say wait until you can spring for the HTM71 because it's a true 3-way with the tweeter located directly above a dedicated midrange driver, which in my experience helps not only with midrange clarity and dynamics but also w... | |
| Help me choose an integrated amp to pair with Anthem MRX 520 receiver I'd put the emphasis on which integrated sounds best to you with your speakers and that it can drive them effectively (nice speaks BTW). With monitors and a good integrated you may find you don't even need bass management for 2-channel listening.... | |
| Totem Forest Signature v. Joseph Audio Profile Congrats! The further you pull them away from the back wall the better the depth of stage and overall imaging will become. | |

| Speaker Suggestions Is this for 2-channel as well as HT? If so, what are you looking to improve upon over the B&Ws? Most importantly, what aspects of speaker performance and sound reproduction are most important to you? What electronics are you driving the spe... | |

| using $5 Monoprice coax cable now, what improvements would upgrading bring? Going from that interconnect there are a lot of things that could be "stepped up." What improvements would you like to achieve? More detail, richer tone, tighter bass, better imaging/soundstaging, etc.? Considering it's the only interconnect in... | |
| Best DAC Just a couple other suggestions around the $1000 level. I had a BC DAC3 and DAC3VBS in my system on demo, and it was truly great digital performance. But I have to say the improvement provided by the virtual battery supply (VBS) was not small an... | |
| Jumperless jumpers I agree, except you might need to add something or do some periodical cleaning to avoid the effects of oxidation. | |
| Stereo Speakers behind a perforated screen- How much loss in sound? I'd never, ever put a screen or anything else between me and my speakers for critical 2-channel listening. Acoustically transparent screen??? Yeah right. Unless my speaker designer meant it to be there, it's gone. Can't you just raise the scre... | |
| Need speaker suggestion for a larger room! There’s a black pair of Nola KOs at a deep discount. They’re an open baffle design so may exhibit a lot of the spatial characteristics you like about the MLs but with bass down to 30Hz. I think these would be a great choice for what you’re looking... | |
