| HTM1D or HTM2D ctr channel with 802D? HTM2D is a perfect match with the 802d's. Center Channel in HT I THINK is more important than big Front L&R speakers. I had the HTM3s before I got the HTM2d. IMO totally different speaker and not fair to compair. Was it better in my system YES! | |
| digital combos, help, EMM labs, MBL, Weiss, Metron Don't forget Theat Digital Gen8 DAC. They just upgraded it to a series II. Something to look at. | |
| HTM1D or HTM2D ctr channel with 802D? HTM2D is much smaller than the HTM1D. If you have a low screen than go with the 2D. I'm using 802d's w/the HTM2D Center. Pricing between the two is miles apart as well. BIG sound from the 802's and HTM2D. It'll be a hugh step up from the 805's. | |
| Swapping the MMF 5 for an SL-1210M5G M5G is a hell of a player. Lots of tweaks via KAB. Can find them of good deals. | |

| Which amp, preamp would match B&W 803S? Any of the Rotel line work very and should be in you budget. | |
| Headshell weight - Sumiko HS-12 vs Technics Dynavector 10x5 works fine w/o the extra weight. | |
| Rolls Vp-129 with Dynavector 10x5 I use the Jolida JD9 with my 10x5. Tons of gain and probably find a deal here on the gon....... | |
| Technics SL1200MK2 Cartridge Discussion I'm using a heavily modified technics 1200 TT. Three of the Mods are from KAB. Record clamp, Tone arm Damping and Iso Footers. Headshell is Sumiko with Dynavector 10x5 cart. Also SDS Turntable Mat. Running that thru a Jolida JD9a with NOS Tubes. S... | |
| Anthem D2--Audiophile Opinions I would agree with Ruryboogie on this. I own the Theta CB3 w/extreme Dacs as well as their Six shooter for my analog preamp. I have integrated my 2channel via the six shooter (turntable only) and its very good but if you want a high end 2 channel ... | |
