| Recommendations for a used Receiver I would buy an Integra! I believe there's a DTR 8.9 HT receiver which will do everthing you want and do it very well. You will have a great receiver that has reasonable power and you can bi-amp the front channels. The Integra receivers sound great... | |
| The Best Audiophile Earphones headphones and Amp Word to the wise...take it slow. I,too, have a pretty decent 2 channel system and thought that I'd like to enter into the headphone arena.

| Do I really need a newer Reciever ? I faced the same choice a few months ago. Most all of the newest receivers all have HDMI connectivity and one cable per component for all audio and video inputs is so much simpler. If your BlueRay player can decode,then as Dweller mentioned, you c... | |
| Why the Blues Really Hit The Spot I probably enjoy listening to the blues more than any other music. I guess it's the ability of the blues guitarist to really immerse himself into the music. The electric guitar, properly played by the artist, has an uncanny ability to make the lis... | |
