| the best music dvd video?? I want to add Copying Beethoven to the list | |
| Good beginner tube amp suggestions I'd go with a Rogue tube amp, they average 650 to 750. Very robust, lots of power and can handle a wide range of speaker types so you can try other speakers in the future if you want. | |
| Anticables Review I bought a used pair of AntiCables whose prior owner didn't like them so they were burned in when I got them. I found them to be fast and detailed by emphaisizing the upper frequencies but they also tended to be harsh with little stereo separation... | |
| Dahlquist DQ-10s as part of Home Theater I ended up using a Dhalquist DQ-10 as my center channel also. Of all the center speakers I tried I found that it provided the most accurate/smoothest presentation of human voice during dialogue in movies. Because of its wide footprint it works wel... | |
| Signal Cable Silver Resolution vs Nordost Red Dawn I found that the Better Cables Silver Serpent (35.00) had more resolution than Straight Wire (165.00) and Signal Cable (about 75-80.00), but there was a amazing jump in all areas of performance when using a Virtual Dynamics Testament digital cable. | |
| WOW factor Pedrillo: I checked your system, that is amazing turntable you put together | |
| Great Digital Cable With Locking RCA Ends? My Virtual Dynamics Testament (silver) cable is a tight fit and has the best resolution in my system so far. Maybe they can make one up to meet your needs | |

| Optical/Toslink VS RCA how big a diff? You need to spend a lot more on a coax cable to equal the performance of an optical cable but... I found the sound to be smoother and warmer (less digital) with a coax than with an optical cable. Go figure, digital is digital, right? but it all de... | |
| Who else wants to keep their system secret? 3 systems, always moving stuff around. I put equipment on shelves backwards and sideways for easy access and it doesn't look pretty, so no pics either, maybe one day | |
| Anti-cables VS. River Cable/cable lengths 30 feet sounds expensive and may not be worth it. Various DIY speaker cable recipies may be worth looking into | |
| Anti-cables VS. River Cable/cable lengths I tried the following amps: Adcom, Rotel, PS Audio, Yamaha and I settled on a 20 year old and mellow 75 watt Onkyo with a tube pre and Shaninian speakers | |
| Anti-cables VS. River Cable/cable lengths I found the Anti-Cables to be very fast and detailed and actually louder in volume than what they replaced, possibly due to their minimalist design, but they tended to be on the bright side, which I dislike. The prior owner of the Anti-cables, who... | |
| Multichannel Amp suggestions Butler, Marsh, Krell, Parasound, ATI, B & KParasound THX and B & K units have input volume controls on the back, so you don't have to modify pre/processor settingsATI and B & K has highest price/performance ratio |
