Dec 18, 2002	Soundproofing??????????? Xiekitchen says it best! Wow, what a diverse "musical" world we live in.
Dec 18, 2002	Upgrade Suggestions Driver is pretty much right on the mark. Answer to your biggest impact question: I would argue that changing speakers has the largest impact on a stereo system all else being equal.
Dec 18, 2002	At what length do component cables start losing pi No and No. As long as the cables are well shielded you should not have any problems.
Dec 17, 2002	And what do Maggies sound like near a wall...... Like crap! IMHO, you need several feet behind to create a solid, 3-D like image with Maggies. Definately try before you buy.
Dec 16, 2002	TransParent Cables vs. Others Check out Discovery's line of cables and also Analysis Plus Oval 9s.
Dec 16, 2002	yet another biwiring qeustion... You can connect all four connections at the amp end then separate them at the speaker end. NO Problem with this. I have done it when I had only one stereo amp before I biamped by system.
Dec 13, 2002	crimping vs soldering If you use quadutectic solder (contact Cardas Audio for a full explanation)I believe a soldered joint is more like no joint at all. Explore this avenue before you attempt any joinery.
Dec 12, 2002	Help. What phono preamp to buy? Don't forget to look at the Audio Research PH3 or an Acoustech PH-1.
Dec 11, 2002	Speakers Upgrade Recommendation I would suggest replacing your front mains with the Paradigm Studio 100s.
Dec 10, 2002	Need an integrated for sensitive speakers - Help The Creek 5350SE works excellent with the Chorus speaker you mention. A buddy of mine purchased the two together and they are an excellent musical pair.
Dec 06, 2002	Got it pared down now - Revel, Dunlavy or Genesis? Turn your music down a little and save your precious hearing, so that when you become old and feeble you are able to still enjoy your music!
Dec 06, 2002	What speakers for $5K Used? Legacy Audio Focus loudspeakers or (if you are lucky to find) the newer Focus 20/20 model.
Dec 06, 2002	What do you look for when buying a used table? LISTEN and INSPECT it thoroughly at a reputable dealer that will back the unit up with some kind of warranty.
