| What's best center speaker kit/plans available? Madisound has some kits. Build them all the same. | |
| Wife wants a black faced receiver to replace Rotel Used B&K. About the only in-between step to separates. Built like a tank. Made in the USA too. | |
| Bryston 3b or adcom 100wpc for center & main Mixing 3 amp brands and 3 speaker brands is not a good idea. Consider selling your least favorite amps and speakers and start building a proper system with matching speakers and amps. Start with the center or L&R speakers. | |
| do i need a second amp for my speakers? I would spend the $ on a better CD player or Dac maybe with a tube output. If you think there is room to improve the amp section, buy a better amp. Have you tried mating a Belles Amp with your pre? | |
| Cat owner wants speakers Another cat tip. Set mouse traps upside down in the area you don't want the cat to go. The cat will trip these and they fly in the air. Great for entertainment and cat training. | |

| Speaker dilema I second Gallo Ref II's. I run VTL 25 watt tiny triodes on them and they sound fantastic! The bass is pretty darn good too. They can be over bright with the wrong equipment. They work best out in the room. | |
| Gallo Ref 3.1 or PMC GB1/FR1 I have never heard PMC speakers. I have run Gallo Ref II's for many years. I have heard the Ref III's at my local dealer. The CDT tweeter throws such a nice soundstage. I can enjoy the sound no matter where I am in the room. The more you listen to... | |
| Crossover-less Speakers Gallo Reference II's are a 2-way crossoverless speaker. Plenty of highs and lows with these. | |
| Center channel phase question. "Another question just popped in my head. How many 1) actually follow this concept; 2) have ideal room setup/situation (unobstructed and equidistant); and 3) are willing, better yet know how, to adjust the processor to compensate for the setup sho... |
