| What CDs to buy @dhite71 The best advise I could give you is to spend some time doing research before purchasing certain CD's. There is a vast difference in sound quality based on the particular iteration of the disk. In a lot of cases, older is better, but eve... | |
| New Pink Floyd release The first time I saw Pink Floyd was 1970 in the PNE Forum in my home town of Vancouver, BC. It was the Atom Heart Mother Tour and the entire audience was what you would call "baked". When they played "Careful With That Axe, Eugene", at the point ... | |

| 13.2, 5.1 and so on. "the best seat in the house" @deadhead1000 Actually I went through the same song and dance until I bought an integrated amp with a home theatre bypass option. This allows a AVR that has the ability to pre out the front channels separately to use the integrated to power the ... | |
| ATC SCM19 V2 Recommendations. @lonemountain No identifying marks on the stands. They are all metal, powder-coated design that the original owner filled with something. Each stand weighs around 20lbs. Tried to make them ring, but all I got was a metallic thud. Front of spea... | |
