Denon 4310 or Integra 9.9
I was in the same position over the Summer and after doing my homework I went with the Denon 4310CI. I chose the Denon, for the following reasons:1. Build quality and reputation. 2. Runs significantly cooler than the Onkyo.3. The reports I read ab... 
Denon 4310 or Pioneer sc-25/27 AV??
I have the Denon 4310CI and believe the performance is outstanding. I think the sound is accurate and natural in either 2 channel or HT situations. I would recommend this unit. 
Most overlooked LPs in the last 20 years
Most overlooked and incredibly good? Wow, where do you start... you can begin this discussion with entire genres of music that have been overlooked, because they get zero radio play. For example, Lounge, Downbeat, Electronica, Indie, Global et. al... 
Pair of JL Audio F110-Good Subs???
Alpha3, for your size room I would recommend going with a larger driver. I don't believe 10" is going to give you the volume and compression you need for movies. I went through the whole subwoofer snalysis paralysis about 2.5 months ago and ended ... 
Any Blu Ray players made in the USA?
Vsfang, it's not a bad for American's to want to buy products made in the United States. Purchasing American products helps to employ Americans. I'm sure people in your country prefer to do the same, but we don't refer to them as "Big Chineseism". 
Artists of the Decade
Synthfreek, you're on your game buddy. You and I have very similar tastes. The Ulrich Schnauss - A Strangely Isolated Place is one heck of a selection. I'm also a fan of Boards of Canada! If you haven't checked out General Midi, I think you'd like... 
Artists of the Decade
Great topic! My artist of the decade would go to Zero 7. No other band has spawned more successful solo careers and had such an impact on Lounge, or Downbeat music. Incredible.Beck has continued to pour out a slew of great records and is as releva... 
Bass rant
Plasma and LCD have been out for a while and LED is just LCD on high-contrast steroids, so people are looking for the next sensation. There are non-brick and mortar sub companies out there on the Net are building earth shaking bass to fill the att... 
RMAF Loudspeakers?
Mmike84, you must have listened to the Song Tower and HT4 from Salk. I've read great things about Salk Signature Sound. I'd be interested to hear your impressions of them at RMAF.Thanks,DB 
Replacement tweeter for Hales Transcendence 5?
Seditious3 - Unfortunately, I have three different email accounts, and I mostly check my gmail. To answer your question... I haven't modified my Hales. I think Madisound can help you with either upgrading drivers, or providing a schematic. 
Replacement tweeter for Hales Transcendence 5?
Let me know how that works out. I'm a Hales T-5 owner as well. Man what a great speaker. Do you like yours as well? 
With $20,000 in your hand, what speaker would you
The brand new Bose 930YZ. The sonic signature is beyond reality. You'll think your head is jammed inside Tommy Lee's base drum. After one listen you'll go into a state of hyper ventriculated spazmazoid.

Wireless200, sounds to me like you're stuck in a musical rut. I have a solution for you. Go to Pandora.com and create your own music stations. Experiment a little, as there are a boatload of muscians out there making magnificent music that you'll ... 
For all you Lounge Lizards
Rae & Christian would be another slammin selection. I have some Peace Orchestra and Hooverphonic... very nice stuff."Air" is good, in fact Zero 7 owes their sound to Air. However, I like Z7 better.
