| Which bookshelf speakers to buy? If you are deciding between Onix Ref 1 and Usher S-520..I have owned both, and I think the Onix is much better, it is more balanced, more detailed, just overall smoother and more refined. The Usher tends to be bright and lean sounding and the dyna... | |

| Sapphire Speakers They are Sapphire brand speakers, not ACI Sapphires. They used to have a website here but its not up anymore. Some info here from another forum | |
| B&K ST 202+ I would definitely keep the 202, its an outstanding amp and will serve you well as a backup or for a 2nd system. You rarely see these for sale and for good reason, they are fantastic amps. | |
| Funniest sales pitch "I'm selling this unit to fund the purchase of a large batch of Viagra pills to save my failing marriage!" :o | |
| Close call for High Altitude Audio Looks like he shot and killed himself. | |
| Adcom GFA 535 II I have the 535 mk I. Not sure what the differences are between it and the newer version. The 535 is a forward, aggressive sounding amp. Its best mated with warm, laid back, rolled of sounding speakers. I found it to work well with a pair of Wharfe... | |

| Paradigm Speaker Question: If I were you I would keep your current speakers, I have the MA Bronze B2 and they are great speakers. I've not been impressed with Paradigm, not even the Studio series...There's a reason people choose the MA Silver over the Studios..... | |
| Headphone tube amplifiers and OTL Yes, I have an ASL MG Head OTL tube headphone amp, and it sounds fantastic when matched with my Sennheiser HD580. Check out www.head-fi.org, a great headphone resource, particularly the amp forum, where there is lots of discussion about the MG Hea... | |
| Denon and Polk Combo Dawg, the Polks he's talking about are $200/pair speakers. The GMA are $800/pair. For $200, why not get something like NHT superzero or Axiom M2i, or a good pair of used bookshelf speakers? I owned the Polk R15 for a few weeks and was not really i... | |
| Swan M200 I had a pair of M200's for several months...great speakers, will actually compete quite well with dedicated bookshelf speakers in the $200-$300 range. Great for PC use. No other PC speaker touches them under $300. |
