B&W N805 vs. Revel M20
Good point, about associated equipment. I have a very toasty system (for SS that is--YBA Passion,Audio Aero Prima )and the M20s work beautifully. What can I say? They work for me. I love 'em. peace,warren 
Audio Magic Stealth it is
Why are the specs so important? It's the sound that matters. Don't you think? My Stealth works beautifully in my system. I have owned this baby for 6 months (sounds like you think I'm looking to buy one, now) and have been very happy. Now the new ... 
Audio Magic Stealth it is
I,too, highly trust my own ears. The Audio Magic is unbelievable. Now, if we're talking garbage....hey, I'm not going there. Trust your ears. Don't hear anything good?-- don't buy it. It's funny. I know just as many, if not more people, than Pschi... 
integrated amp for $1500?
I love the YBA Integre DT. I don't think you'll find a better 50 watts out there. If you look real hard, you can almost (may cost you a tad more) get a new one in your price range. I owned this baby for 7 years and loved it. I'll skip all the audi... 
B&W N805 vs. Revel M20
I have compared both. (there are threads galore on this. check the archives) I went with the M20s. This was an easy decsion. They, for my ears, were better in almost every way. Do not go with their stands, though. They (the 805s, too) are poor and... 
Review: Audio Aero Prima cd CD Player
Every CD I listen to, is a new treat. Jazz, particularly, is (my favorite) wonderful. This CDP is, really, quite incredible. I thought my Micromega Stage 2 was doing it. Ignorance is bliss. Now, I can get down, and just listen and groove. I've, fi...

Sorry, no experience with that. Let us know what you decide. 
Electrocompaniet owners
The only way to get Electrocompaniet to care about their customers and improve on their service, is to stop buying their products. This does the job most of the time, in the business world. I don't care how good their CDP is, how cheap it can be b... 
Review: Audio Aero Prima cd CD Player
In the high end game you pay a lot of money for that 10%. Give me a break here. 10% give or take--don't hold me to a subjective statement. Maybe it's a tad less. It's a helluva player. What can I say? How's 80%? 
how far from rear wall should proac response2.5 be
Your wall or my wall? Start somewhere and end when the distance from the wall meets sonic bliss with your ears. Easy enough? This is entirely dependant on your room acoustics, furniture, electronics-- everything. 
Who is your overall favorite guitarist?
Max, I saw him in concert about 6 weeks before he died. He was a monster...and he finally sobered up, and got his life back in order....what a loss...

wash a couple and you'll DEFINITELY hear the difference. 
Who is your overall favorite guitarist?
Stevie Ray, hands down...a monster, and boy can he make that guitar cry.... 
Integrated amps and stereophile ratings confusion?
My problem with Stereophile is not what they recommend. I have found them to be, generally, very reliable. It's what they don't recommend or review. That's the deal. There is a shit load of great things out there, that they will never review. Why?... 
Experience with Sistrum or Grand Prix Monaco rack?
Sounds like one sweet system you've got there. I, too, would love to know what's on the speaker horizon? Anyway, I use the Sistrum Rack systems and their Mini Monitor support system as well. They're wonderful. The best way to couple all your elect...
