Snakes and Arrows on Vinyl
lol...I was going through the forums quickly and saw this title and knew who it was....A friend of mine has it on vinyl. His system is strictly 2 ch and more on the high end side than mine. I didn't want it to sound better, but dam it sure as hell... 
Which Boney James
Sweet Thing and Shake it Up...Body Language is good, ahhhhh just get them all, don't think you can go wrong with this guy...The James/Braun project is killer, I would start there JMHO.... 
For the money, Best set up for HT and music
Bluvision,Following Knownothings advice. Used Denon or Yamaha, Oppo and that will leave you at least $3700 for speakers and a sub. SVS and Definitive would fit your budget(great for HT, but not well liked for 2ch.)You could always add on a seperat... 
? about oppo
Dwhitt,I just purchased the 983 after much research and thinking on BluRay. My set up is 80/20 HT so for me it was a no brainer. Both picture and audio quality blow away any player I have personally had. $1000 players are not in my WAF and I am wa... 
New Rainbow remasterings are awful
If anyone is interested...The Live in Munich DVD is pretty good both audio and video, especially considering when it was recorded... 
New Rainbow remasterings are awful
Perhaps godlike in the terms that some remember him IN DP AND ofcourse his own mind. Technique, originality, I don't know...I like him as a guitarist. Is he one of the top 10 or top 20 guitar gods...No...I've played for many years and have seen nu... 
New Rainbow remasterings are awful
Audiofeil,"rainbow is not Deep Purple"Totally agree. And also agree that Blackmore is a self indulgent self imposed guitar god, but by no means whatsoever a great guitarist. What he did do was put two very diverse and successfull projects together...

Gslone,IMHO I would have to put Rainbow up there with the forefathers of metal or at minimum hard rock in general. I gues if you dont know whow Rainbow, Deep Purple is just another crayon in the Crayola box!!!

Overhang,I think you could basically call the remasters crap..Not sure why they even bothered.. I would have to agree the originals sound better..."Who is Rainbow"? "Rainbow, theres a market for that group"? You have got to be kidding, right? 
I Have 100K for Speakers?
MUSICSLUG,OK, NOW IT ALL MAKES PERFECT SENSE!!!! THANKS...LOL.. 
I Have 100K for Speakers?
Audiokineses,Thats kind of the point I'm trying to make. No offense intended to the person I mentioned. The thread just caught my attention as to in my opinion and maybe to others here how sometimes "pay" just for the sake of paying. I think there... 
I Have 100K for Speakers?
Gregm,30k..See that to me still seems way up there. Even if I wanted to spend 30k AND had wifes approval I don't think my ears could tell differences enough to be cost effective..Maybe my ears are going. Not too sure. 
Any new reviews on the Oppo 983?
JOHNNYB53,I don't think it has been said any better than that...I just joined the Oppo team and cant wait till I receive it... 
Next step in upgrading my home theater system??
Seanile 31,I found a big difference when I added a multich amp to my HT set up and used my Yamaha Rx1500 as a pre/pro. Big difference in soundstage and dynamics....Just my 2 cents... 
zakk wylde the Randy Rhodes of today?
Synth,There is a whole lot more to his style. Check out some of his earlier stuff. Book of Shadows, Pride & Glory.
