Help: Hook up Sony DVP-S9000ES
I'll keep that in mind, perhaps try to give things a more open mind. Regards,Tim 
Hall of Shame
Yea, I would have to say the Avalon Acoustic Eidolon's are the crappiest looking/sounding speakers on earth ;) I don't have any grudges agains much equipment though I am fairly particular about what I would actually own. Just for the record that w... 
Favorite HT demo scene from a movie?
I gotta go with "Meet Joe Black" for some reason that DVD has one of the best if not the best picture quality I have seen, not much for action. But the color contrasts and vividness(if that is even a word??) is amazing such a rich, warm picture. T... 
What connection is better Balanced or single ended
My god that is sooooooo ridiculous Captain, I have asked tons of stupid/dumb questions here. I was just unaware of them being dumb at the time, but where I once was blind now I see. We all progress at different rates in audio, not to mention start... 
Help: Hook up Sony DVP-S9000ES
I am simply saying that a CD(properly recorded) w/ a good DAC will sound strikingly similar to a normal SACD, in other words I would rather invest in CD's and enjoy most any title I want then try to focus on SACD and there 500(?) or so titles. I e... 
What connection is better Balanced or single ended
What is going on here? I have answered this question at least 6 times in the last year, with no disrespect Bigwaves, you should do a search on any common question, chances are it has been gone over too many times. I search every question prior to ... 
Amp. impedance setting for 6 ohm speakers ?
I have 6ohm speakers and go back and fourth, the 'high' setting sounds good, more delicate, slightly better bass response, more detail and possibly better imaging. However the 'medium' setting has more dynamic's to it and has a certain warmth to i... 
Help: Hook up Sony DVP-S9000ES
I also found that the coaxial sounds better then the optical. Also I found that the DAC in the Sony is pretty bad, I would recomend using the digital out into your Classe, for redbook and DVD, as far as SACD goes, I would not go out of your way yo... 
advice before my head explodes...
Geez, we are getting full of armed service folk now, two new posters in one week Gunbunny and Poor_Airman, and now Pcc is joining us again. I feel safer and more secure then I used to, the 3 of you should get together and talk about audio, I bet y... 
My system has just received the ultimate insult
Very true, I suppose there is a reason why I am single! I am fairly young/ignorant often, and am sure I have a lot to learn about life and relationships but in the mean time I am aloud to be super particular, unlike Sinatra-The pickin’s AREN’T sli... 
My system has just received the ultimate insult
I'm not sure about that one Kelly, more then one girlfriend has left my life due to her poor taste(not always my choice, but for the better in the end). I would run like the dickens, poor taste is like a bad wine it gets worse with age, if she is ... 
Got BAT VK-60 ...now what?
S2k_dude I asked this question along time ago(not even seen in the "my resent threads" section), and the majority of the people felt the 5i is a better performer then the 30, not sure about the 30se though. It has been a while and I could be mista... 
What is your upgrade philosophy?
Perfectimage summed up what I did so amazingly I am scared right now! I had something cheap for a long time, and new what I wanted and then piece by piece started buying them, I want a new digital front end(transport, hoping for Burmester), I woul... 
Got BAT VK-60 ...now what?
I also have a VK-60 and was considering one of the BAT pre's, with your budget I would go with the 5i, keeping in mind you have a digital source with true balanced outputs. If your CD player/pre only has single ended(RCA) outputs you need to use a... 
I don't remember much, but I remember......
We had such steam what happened? I know there are more then a few who have not stepped up to the plate, come on this is kinda fun!
