| Thiel/Crutchfield I think the individual pricing per/speaker is an accomodation for the Home Theatre and surround sound crowd. | |
| combining different cables I believe that using only the same brand and model of cables is a very good starting point. After that, one may find that different cables may work best between different components and as a complete system. I try to get manufactures opinions (not... | |
| Pass Labs XA- ".5" ??? Not exactly an impulse purchase here in the US either. | |
| Aragon 4004 - Load Capacity Question I believe the Palladiums while capable, work best on power hungry speakers don't stray much from 8 Ohms. Rather odd birds, no? | |

| Sales: truth in weight? I think some sellers might pack their items with greater care which increases the cost of shipping. It's been my experience that the actual cost of shipping is always higher than the shipper's web site estimates. Personaly I'd rather pay a reasona... | |
