Signal Cable or Audio Art Cable for best budget...
You might also want to look at Wireworld Rainbow and AZ Action. They make a 5.1 bundle that works really well. I'm using the Wireworld on my Denon 2900 for SACD and DVD-A. Sounds good to me. 
New R Series Rel Subs
Gjrad, Most of the reviews I've read always seem to speak of Full or near full range speakers with these subs. I'm using B&W S805's and I'm leaning towards the R-205. Outside of more power,whats the difference between the R-305 and the R-205. 
Am I the only one
Artizeno5 Well I guess my system is sensitive enough. I followed your advice. I unplugged the thing last night when I got home from work. When I sat down for my nightly listen I noticed the music sounded OK but a little dry. I smiled. After lettin... 
Am I the only one
S23chang A pure audio system is in the works for another room in the house, but the family loves the HT. I'll probably never get rid of that system. But my two channle system will have to wait a while. These people seem to want real money for that...

Eldartford I'm not saying the emperor has no clothes. I'm just saying he's naked in my house. 
Am I the only one
S23Chang Not sensitive enough? Well that's the first time I've ever heard that. And then change my whole system just to fit a pair of speaker cables?? Bro,it ain't that serious. I have about five or six other pairs of cables that will do and have ... 
Denon 2900 and Dacs
Snipes: You're right. As a cd player the 2900 does leave a lot to be desired. Sacd and DVD-A are ok and the dvd end is great. But I have a Denon changer and it sounds better then the 2900. Much more body to the music. This is really a fine player,... 
Denon 2900 and Dacs
I'm considering an outboard dac for my Denon 2900. What am I going to hear? I have an Anthem avm30 and an ATI 1807 amp with B&W across the front. I listen to music in two channle,unless it's sacd or dvd-a. Will the expense be worth it. 
Multi Channle Amps
Thanks for the suggestions. I have it narrowed down to three. ATI 1807,Arcam P1000,and the Anthem PVA 7. There all quite different as far as the sound and power is concerned , but the fun is in the comparing 
Power Cord
Yes, thats just what power cords are. If you have a non captive cord on your CDP,Amp, receiver, DAC,Pre-pro, or any other piece of gear you can replace it. I have tried Moon Audio,ZU Cable, JPS and a few others. It's a big tweek and chances are yo... 
Component video cable?
I switched from radio shack to Zu cable. First from my HD stb to my Hitachi and the difference was immediate. More color saturation and a sharper picture. And this was after the set was callibrated. Next from my Denon 2900,the same thing.Much high... 
Review: B & W Loudspeakers Nautilus 805 Monitor
I have become a B&W N805 owner in the last month. I must have listened to twelve different brands of speakers,including floorstanders and standmounts. My room being about 14'x15' does not need a lot to fill it up. My tastes range from jazz(the...
