| I am sick of cables Personally, what threw me off, is that you mentioned AZ Silver Ref MkII as one of the expensive cables. You current interconnects retail for several times more than the AZs do. And isn't DIY means Do It Yourself? How can a set of cables that you b... | |
| I am sick of cables your system page lists Argento Serenity. Are those the cables you consider inexpensive? | |

| Blue Ray players with AVI playback capabilities Thanks Sacman. PS3 is what I'm leaning towards currently. | |
| Blue Ray players with AVI playback capabilities I have too many computers as it is. Just need a blu-ray player that does all that. Although AVI file playback isn't that problematic, now that I think of it. My TV has a usb input and I can play AVI files directly off of flash memory. But multisys... | |
| Pass XA versus Krell FPB Amps So let me get this straight...Richard Vandersteen does not like Pass amps. Does this mean that Pass amps are crap?In my opinion: 1 - if you have a room that is treated acoustically a bit too much and/or 2 - you have laid back, relaxed sounding spe... | |
| What piece of music can you play over & over? I listen to my iPod at work. This is when I get to hear part of my music collection I don't normally play a lot. If I like something I can listen to it over and over while I'm working. No I do not sit and listen to the same thing at home...there i... | |
| What piece of music can you play over & over? I listen to different music. As for the operas, recent operas I was stuck on are Turnadot and aftet that one I switched to Shostakovich's Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk. Speaking of a complex opera. Try this one. One of my favorite. | |
