@toro3 did you decide on this piece?I'm perusing a network player and this one is on my radar. 
Will decent speakers always out do headphones?
@telemarcerAs a fellow trumpet player I can relate to your post and I can tell you I have never enjoyed headphones as much as sitting in front of a 2 channel system. We hear things from a perspective that few people ever have the joy of experienci... 
Cleanest CD recording to test with
Stumbled across your post just now and will throw in the three that I am listening to this morning.  Was in the mood for that sourcery that you are referring to - no walls to be found type of sound.  Music and musicians placed across and deep in t...

Jungson JA88D mute function

Replacing speakers in Lat-1's
Not unless you know how to rework a crossover network. A designer spends countless hours modeling and testing those exact drivers and crossover parts in that exact cabinet until the desired results are obtained. The sum of ALL parts including the ...

Cable TV digital music
