Oppo, great video reviews,, but good transport????
Keep audio and video seprate.. honestly you want stellar video Oppo is your machine, and by the way thru the DVD concert discs the Oppo sounds excellent, but it is just a transport for that so its a good DVD transport when going thru a good surrou... 
NEED HELP WITH PRICE RANGE
I don't think bryston makes speakers? Paradigm I would not be surprised if they are owned by the same canadian company now though.. Or they are only thru the same distributor or something.. Kinda like harmon international thru the U.S. for Revel, ... 
How to thwart cats
Alright all joking aside... In order to not Use a SCREEN that will short things out, I have in the past taken Nylon Screen from your local whoever, and you take off the top of the unit and cut sections of the screen to fit nicely over the grates i... 
Odyssey Stratos or Krell 400Xi for Usher 6381's
Well, depending how good you are with stuff, there is 4 bolts holding the face on.. Yes you could get LED's, but you need to cut the wire add some quick connects and put in new lights, I would not de-solder the wire from the board it is really thi... 
Mundorf Silver/Gold in Oil Supreme Caps Any Good?
Jeremy it is a whole different cap I believe period... your run of the mill Auricaps, Solens, Kimber, mundorf supreme costing 5 dollars to 30 dollars in popular sizes are not a huge step from each other at all.. You want something special, in all ... 
1.0 or 1.5 m digital interconnect, does it matter?
EtranHa good one! I think that is a sarcastic post?, the less cable the less feet the better.. But I never know on these boards with some of these jokers :) 
Odyssey Stratos or Krell 400Xi for Usher 6381's
Yeah the Dual mono board adds some heat but nothing significant.. The stratos and the extreme are not the same as the Dual mono's which are 2 Amps in one chassis so that is the reason.. sharing 2 amps on one heatsink vs. one amp on one pair of hea... 
1.0 or 1.5 m digital interconnect, does it matter?
No difference in my trials... I have had 2 meter vs. 1 meter etc... as well.. Only thing I can say is TOO short like the .5 meter might sound different, I did not do a direct test of the same cable in a .5 vs. something longer but the .5's I tried...

Best speaker for small 12x14 room 50 WPC tube amp
The RF35's or the Older RF3's are excellent for around 500 or less used.. Better bass than most of the series, the RF5's and Rf7's are a bit imbalanced, but part of it is they use a much brighter pro horn and the bass does not keep up as well as t... 
Odyssey Stratos or Krell 400Xi for Usher 6381's
The odyssey extreme stereo, or the Dual Mono would be good... They don't really have more power per watt I believe but they have higher capacitance and the Amperage out goes way up... Current controls the speakers so I would guess this is a good w... 
Mundorf Silver/Gold in Oil Supreme Caps Any Good?
Jeremy, I believe this choice will come down to what section of the crossover are you doing? Or are you doing it all? I would put standard supremes on bass drivers for the low end, and I would definatly put Silver oils up top, they are still far b...

Component Video cable recommendation
The Zu is not bad.. The WIREWORLD GOLD STARLIGHT 5 Is probably the most SHarp cable out there, but very expensive, it is used in many of the Pro AMC theater installs I understand... Also the BEST for the money is the BELDEN Brilliance which is als... 
A question regarding "tubes"
Many tubes will do more aggressive sound than solid state.. Many think the tube nature is to roll of etc.. some tubes have wider bandwith and more attack than several of the widely used transistors on the market. Thats where tube rolling and syner...
