How many years before MP3 becomes king?
I agree, Tomryan.I only listen to a handful of artists regularly. For example, for the past month or so, I've alternated between Prince and Joss Stone. (And for those who haven't heard Joss, all I can say is do so immediately. Best voice I've ever...

I suddenly feel like I'm in kindergarden again. Please disregard this thread!

I wasn't recommending the product, I was only imagining the time in the near future when CD's and LP's are going to be obsolete.Like it or not, thousands of dollars worth of equipment is going to be obsolete by 2010, IMO.

Have you ever deceived your wife-audio purchase
I've got a pre-amp hiding in the garage right now. I'm trying to figure out a way to camoflage it in my stereo rack. I thought about just laying it on its side behind the entertainment center, but the remote won't work. 
Best amp for studio 100v3, Rotel , Anthem or other

I got my audio dealer to write me a fake invoice for my Paradigm Studio 100 v2 speakers with rosenut veneer. $800.

Electro Statics for rears only?

McCormack DNA-1 vs. B&K ST202 or 2140
Bigtee,You just made my day. I've been driving my paradigm studio 100 v.2's with a DNA-1 DLX for about a month now and am just speechless that I am so lucky to have a stereo that sounds THIS GOOD LOUD!!! 
Upgrade advice please
I'm pretty new, too. So take my recommendations with a huge grain of salt.I have your same DVD player, too. I started with the 3802, because on clearance, it had the most features and power I could find for the money. I was not pleased with it's s... 
Upgrade advice please
I've got the 3802 and love it for all it's features and versatility.I'm using the pre-outs with a DNA-1 amp, 185 watts, for the fronts only.This seems to free up a lot of the Denon's power for the center and rears.Next purchase will be a dedicated...
