| Best 1,000 complete system for girlfriend ideas I thought about it some more and the comments to keep it simple are best. So a the NAD receiver or the better all-in-one systems, along with some good speakers. Looks probably matter too, just as much as sound. For looks using regular components, ... | |
| Volume Controls for CD Players Probably easier to purchase one of those external volume controls. | |
| AC Conditioners: Must Have Tweak or More Voodo Many conditioners use the ground on a 3 way plug to get rid of the noise from the digital components. I agree with others that you would need to ground the cheater plug to get the best results. | |

| CD Player Modifications. Is it worth the ? Aroc. I believe the XC-30M was the first. Stan Warren replaces the toslink in favor of his own designed setup. Mine is the XC-35M, but I have a new unmodified XC-37M in the closet as a back-up. They recently stopped making the XC-37M. I wonder if ... | |

| Under 1k integrated recomendations I agree the AR "The Complete" is a nice amp, as well as the Bryston. You could also look for a used YBA Integre for $1K or the Integre DT for slightly more. YBA is who makes The Complete. Also around $1K used is the Creek 5350R and 5350SE. | |
| CD Player Modifications. Is it worth the ? I have spoken to Stan Warren on a number of occassions and he believes in his work. You need to have a Pioneer or Onkyo DVD player with the Burr Brown 24/96 or higher DAC. I cannot believe he would downplay what he does. If Stan did say something ... | |
