| Advice for big sound in small room I agree with the above posts. I would add that you might consider some acoustic treatment for the wall behind you. The short distance from the rear-wall reflections to your ears will sort smear the sound, screwing with your soundstage and imaging.... | |
| Preamp new/used under $900 Thank you eveyone. | |
| newbie help with speakers and cd players I heard the Monitor silverline speakers with a harmon reciever, and it sounded really good. At the time my budget was was $2000 for speakers, but I almost bought the silver line 7 for a grand i thought they were so good. I believe that line of Mon... | |
| Who R U? This was a great idea, David. I've found it to be the most interesting thread yet. I'm a poor 23 year old psych major. When I'm not buried underneath my texts or planning my next equipment purchase years in advance, I play guitar, play tennis, pai... | |
| Speaker Help!!! I definately agree with the Revelation two and three. I have heard them in a room roughyl your size and they were fantastic. I bought the twos about a year ago and haven't felt any desire to upgrade to date. | |
| Important Qualities Other than Sound I am a total sucker for nice looking piece of equipment. Give me piece from Pathos or one of those super cool lacquered Merlin speakers. Why the hell is so much gear black? I like the color, but it is sooooo boring for equipment. I am going to buy... | |

| Help with a budget second system Hmmm...I would suggest that you start with the speakers and the cd player, and then find an integrated amp that goes well with them. In my little system (a little under $2k), I have a Rotel rcd-971, nad 314 integrated, and B&W 302s. Cardas cab... | |
| Best used amp $750 range i pitty the fool who sells his classe pre and doesn't just buy a used classe audio seventy or fifteen to go with it. | |
| Buyer's remorse - your worst purchase? I owned a pair of Paradigm Studio 20s for a day or two before packing them up and trading them in (for B&Ws). The drivers sound like a pair of trash can lids, and the sound was very boxed in. They're garbage just like the rest of the paradigm ... | |
