| Speaker List Size 14x28 is not a small room. You can place the speakers on the 14' size. A pair of used Tannoy TD-12's is worth considering. | |

| Using a studio monitor for home listening? Thanks for the comments.I have a modest budget, so I cannot afford to buy a pair of new Dynaudio monitors. Then, I found that I can buy a new pair of Dynaudio nearfield monitor MB6's for about $700 plus shipping. The BM6's seem to have a better sp... | |

| Bi-wiring using both speaker 1 and 2 outputs Thanks for the info. It's good to know that I am not along doing this. I had some difficulties inserting 2 12awg bare wires into the same speaker connector, that's why I use this scheme. BTW, the McIntosh MA6450 works *very well* with my Tannoy De... | |

The build quality is first rate, and it's georgeou... | |
| The best CD Player for the money Sony DVP-7000 ~$250 used (an excellent DVD player as well). | |
