| I've narrowed it down but... The system is so revealing it is easy to hear the improvement in sound stepping up from CDs to HDCDs to SACDs. Sound is very involving which I thought was not possible w/ an AVR and Bluray/SACD player. I think I'm a convert to home theater. BTW, m... | |
| I've narrowed it down but... Turned off various dynamic sound features and re-calibrated the system. It sounds clear, balanced and wonderful now. Sacds and hdcds sound stunning. | |
| I've narrowed it down but... I ordered the Yammie rxa740 and bds677 on Wed morning and received it on Fri morning. Fast shipping from A4L.I upgraded software on both units to the latest available from their website using a usb thumb drive.I've begun setting it up using their ... | |
| I've narrowed it down but... Opps! My fingers were typing unconsciously, I ment Aventage not Advantage. | |
| I've narrowed it down but... I ordered the Yamaha RX-A740 Advantage receiver and BD-S677 BluRay w/SACD universal player from A4L. Looking forward to my first new pieces of equipment since the early '70s. | |
| I've narrowed it down but... I read that one, but others gave it a very good review. Makes you wonder. Maybe I should look at the Yamaha and Marantz more seriously. | |
| I've narrowed it down but... I was wondering about the low power of Marantz. The Denon would be a better choice of these w/ almost double the power and ability to drive lower impedance. | |
| McIntosh MA6200 and tube preamp It's worth a try. Years ago I mated a AES (Cary) tube pre w/ an older Pass Labs amp w/ outstanding results. Tubes gave a large 3D soundstage and SS offered up plenty of detail. | |
| I've narrowed it down but... I like the look and features of the 1605. I hope 50wpc is enough when the others are 90wpc. My living/dining area is 22x18. But ultimately I want the best sound, what ever the brand. | |
| I've narrowed it down but... Thanks, that is where I got the best prices to put this selection of receivers together. Have you heard this or other Marantz avrs? | |
| McIntosh MR78 tuner repair It's really quite easy. I did my mr77 w/o any instructions a few times. More or less you remove knobs, then the side metal bars, and various screw that hold top and bottom bars that retain glass. You figure it out as it goes. Once apart you will p... | |
| Wharfdale Diamond - Pleb Audiophile speaker? I remember reading the B&W CM series is made of woven fiberglass, not woven kevlar of the DM series, so looks can be deceiving if that is your criteria for deciding if a speaker is good or not. If the 9.1 is $175 and the 10.1 is $350, what qua... | |
| Wanted to buy. B&W CM2's There's some on ebay now! | |
| Selecting Amplifier for Vienna Acoustics Speakers. My experience with Vienna is they like an amp with great drive and detail. | |
| TEAC AI-3000 Integrated Amp Review I see you posted your review 1.5 years ago. I like to read a follow up after you've had it for quite awhile...if you still have it and not sold it after the initial honeymoon stage. Looking forward to your further comments. |
