| Driving myself crazy with TT purchase... I agree with uru975, I didn't see Rega listed in your thread. There are so many tweeks and upgrade available, that you can build a darned nice table a step at a time.If you can find a used P3 or even a P25 in the price range you mention. | |
| Best Amp for McIntosh sys.- MC252, MC402, or MC501 Of the 2) 2 channel amps listed I would go with the 402. I have one and love it. I had a 352 and really didn't expect much when i bought it I just wanted to get away from the changing of the bulbs. But the 402 is a newer design than the 252 and ha... | |

| Wilson Sophia vs. Piega P10 Shakey the room you have should work well with the Sophias.I meant no disrepect to the Piega bass, they do bass qite well, but yes the Sophias do it better. You will see what I mean when you get them. The Sophia in my opinion does bass better than... | |
| Wilson Sophia vs. Piega P10 I have heard them at the same dealer but not in an A-B comparison but with the same equipment and cables. The dealer I speak off no longer carries the Piega line. My impression was that the 10's were more forward than the Sophias. I also think the... | |

| Do you cover your towers? I keep my grills off. But never thought of covering them. I guess thatsince the drivers are mostly vertical, unless you have Theil or simular. The small amount of dust that accumulates on them would vibrate off whne playing. Also I have a sheep wo... | |

| Mcintosh MX136/MC205 vs Anthem D2v/A2 Tough decision here. I am a McIntosh guy so let's be honest up front on that. I think for the use of both HT and 2 Channel the pros and cons I see are that on the HT side the Anthem will bring you better video processing and has the new BluRay cod... | |
| Upgrade from Revel F52's I would agree with wpines if you want to save the money. But if you are in the mood to buy now of the 2 mentioned I would get the Sophias. I have heard both and the Vandys just don't have the presence of the Sophias. But as an owner of the F32 I w... | |
