| High definition FM broadcast's ? My favorite pbs station now has a digital broadcast alongside the analog one. It has created a significant amount of noise unless I switch my tuner to narrow which of course reduces the quality. This station has broadcast high quality broadcasts t... | |
| B & W 801 woofer damage Surrounds are actually easy to replace yourself. Will only cost about 30 bucks apiece. You do have to make sure to get the voice coil lined up properly. There's numerous places than can do this for you too. | |

| Speaker suggestions for less than ideal accoustics Get a Behringer DEQ 2496. This will help alot. For 300 bucks with the Behringer ECM 8000 microphone it's a steal. If you can use any room treatment that would be good too. No speaker is designed for bad acoustics that I'm aware of. Do some reading... | |

Your system will only perform as well as the acoustics in your room allow it to. Once you have a good acoustical environment you'll wonder what you were waiting for. Another thin... | |
| Parasound, McCormick, Odyssey - best under $1000 I think you should try one and see how you like it. They're all good power amps. I'd be inclined to get a Parasound. There's a brand new Parasound 1500a for 600 bucks. | |
| Beginning Audio System Pabelson is right on the mark. Concentrate on a good pair of speakers. Buying used will give you the best bang for the buck. A receiver which has a preamp, tuner and amplifier on one chassis will probably fit your needs best with your budget. Good... |
