| Best remote with preamp The remote for the Bel Canto eVo2i is a very nice piece. Solid metal, responsive and with only usable features. Actually there are two features I never use, "tape" and "loop." The remote for the eVo2i is the same as the remote for the PRe2.The Vol... | |

| Best recorded rock album.Amused to Death.R.Waters? Another tip for "Life On A String," especially if your cdp decodes HDCD. The sound is phenomenal. The bass on track 6 will give your woofers a workout.As for "Amused To Death," I never thought of it as well recorded because of the Q sound. I love ... | |

| Vandersteens and room acoustics Agree with Stevecham also. Check my system page for pics of the Aurelex products. They can be found at Guitar Center stores. They are good for first reflection points and not too pricey.I owned a pair of the 2CE sigs and had them in a room that wa... | |
| CD transport for messed up Arcam Have you tried cleaning the laser lens? If not I suggest a can of compressed air but be careful. If the air doesn't get it you can try a Q-tip with some alcohol on the lens, but be even more careful. This worked for me on a Sony cdp a while back.A... | |
