| Amplifiers for B&W 803D/802D I upgraded from the 803 to 802 Nautilus (not the Diamond Series). At that point, the 802 had a much bigger sound stage. I now drive them with the 350 watt MF TriVista Integrated, which is a great match -- head turning. If you are going to buy the ... | |
| PICK ONE... ONKYO 805 or MARANTZ 8001 I would not buy a receiver that does not have HDMI 1.3. The 1.3 has both video and audio advantages. | |

If you are going cd, you might also listen to the Cary 303 (or 306 if it fits your budget). The 303 allows you to experiment with diffe... | |
| Musical Fidelity kw DM 25 Transport and DAC Still no response as to examples of how MF products are poorly engineered. I guess "wiped the floor, big time" is indicative of the reliability of that opinion. | |
| Musical Fidelity kw DM 25 Transport and DAC For the comment that MF products are poorly engineered, could you give a specific example or two of this poor engineering? zmy experience is quite the opposite. | |
| CDP Upgrade: Around 2k Used Look at the Cary 303-300 and listen to the tube output. It is special. | |
| Pioneer vs. Panasonic plasma Read the AVS.forum discussions of vertical banding in Sharp LCDs, particularly the 52" and the 56". | |
