Focal Scala Utopia vs Wilson Sasha?
I like the Focal sound but doesn't that kind of droop- looking leaning-over cabinet profile turns me off. That doesn't bother you? 
help with speakers that rock, pleeze
Your requirement has Klipsch Heritage speakers written all over it. 
why does digital volume control cause loss in info
Have you noticed that the lowest settings on digital volume controls actually play the music pretty loud for the lowest setting? For example going from -50 dB (mute) to -49.5 dB is not a tiny little increase in volume. It's something that's a bit ... 
Stick with Aerial 20T to play above 100Hz? Or MBL?
If you got two SW12s then you might as well get some monitors. For that matter get a pair of 5Bs. I can't imagine using SW12s with 20Ts. 20Ts are already full range speakers. Why don't you plug the port on the bottom? Email Aerial and see what the... 
Woofer manufacturor for Aerial 5Bs
I think you'd be best off with the vifa's especially in the side configuration. Surely better than a new pair of used speakers. 
Woofer manufacturor for Aerial 5Bs
Did you blow out the woofer? Aerial parts are pricey. 
Why aren't there more Blu Ray/DVD transports?
I'm wondering why the OPPO b83 is twice as expensive as everything else. I have a standard def oppo I like a lot but $500 for blu-ray is a bit pricey compared to the competition. I suspect the price is high because OPPO got a good name in the revi... 
Saw the Gregg Allman band last night.
Speaking of Fillmore, go to youtube and watch three videos of Dreams 1) Fillmore era (PBS special) with Duane 2) later 70s version with Dickey playing lead and 3) recent version with Derek. I'd be interested in hearing comments on the differences.... 
Saw the Gregg Allman band last night.
Laid Back is good of course but from 1973 I belive. I'm no Angel is classic Greg. Personally I like Just Before the Bullets Fly best. It's a tad over-produced (80's style) but the songwriting is strong and Dan's guitar work is fabulous. That album... 
Saw the Gregg Allman band last night.
Yes, I've seen him and his band a few times as well. I always liked his solo albums better than most Allman's albums. Used to see him at his annual New Year's Eve show at the Roxy in Atlanta. I heard he stopped doing that show but I moved away fro... 
McIntosh MC-501 vs McIntosh MC-1.2KW
Basically people say the 1.2 is just a little more of what the 501 is. Just like people say the 501 is a little more of what the 402 is. Usually upgrades from one to the other are done because the McIntosh sound is smooth and comfortable. You find... 
Aerial 7B's vs Totem Forest ?
I'm currently have a pair of 7Bs in my bedroom. Sounds great and the finish of the speakers has kept my wife from complaining. If I were going to downsize I'd go with the 5Bs or Dynaudio. I don't know how much downsizing from the 7Bs you're going ... 
ATC SCM 40 vs. ATC SCM 50
Shadorne, I hadn't thought about the amps in ATCs that much. If they run Class A... does the speaker enclosure throw off a lot of heat? 
Speakers to pair with krell that rock
If I were you I'd take the burden off the speakers as the means of taming a Krell. Krells are nothing if not forward and IME you'll need a careful selection of recordings, good room acoustics, great source, good cables to name of a few. Krell is v... 
Are there any albums you consider perfect?
After reading this thread I went back and listened to Sowing the Seeds... and liked it a lot more that I did when it orignally came out. Very nice recording and songwriting. It can be a little preachy but overall a good work. My favorite album by ...
