Compact Low-Powered Amp Recomendations?
Reubent,Thanks! The TA 10.1 definately sounds like a no brainer. I'm a little concerned about having to keep an eye out on the DC offset. So many choices....Steve

Has anyone tried HD radio?
Kocsis,If they haven't already, Rotel is coming out with a "high end" all-in-one tuner (FM/HD/with a Sirius option). The model number is RT-1084. I don't know about the sound/reception quality of HD radio, but the additional FREE stations is a big...

Linn vs rega cd players?

A new ploy for fraud?
Sounds like the same person who tried this on me (see below). He even sent me a bogus check for $4,200. I think we should all pressure Audiogon to put a warning on their website.-----------------------------------------------------------From: "Jic...
