Outlaw 755 vs B&K reference 7250
I can only comment on the 7250. I've had it for about two years now and am extremely happy with it! It's a great amp for the money. B&K are very supportive when and if there is a problem, I have no problem recommending it! Good luckVern 
How do the Martin Logan Ascents compare to the
Having both speakers in my home, in my system there is no comparison. The newer panels have better definition and extension of the highs. In my opinion the older panels are the ones that have a coloration that could be called "plastic". I'm compar... 
How about using a Denon AVR5800 with Martin Logans
Jc, I agree it's not the best route to go. I only used it temporarily until I went to my present system which is of course seperate components. I'm using a Levinson 335 for the front 2 channels and a B&K 7250 for the center and rears, and of c... 
How about using a Denon AVR5800 with Martin Logans
Okay, I'll say it again, it works! I also was doubtful about what the manual said. Also, the newer Logans are much better when dipping down at the higher frequencies. A lot of people when referring to the "drop" are remembering the CLS's I never h... 
How about using a Denon AVR5800 with Martin Logans
JC, That's not true, before I bought my present 2/5 channel set up I had a Denon 2700, that drove 2 sequel's, a Logos, and 2 scripts in the rear. Never shut the receiver down once! wasn't real dynamic, but it worked. 
Need a "short list" of best Subwoofers for M.L.'s
Denf, I'm happy using my Storm with my Odysseys! If I had it to do over again I'd buy the Descent, it wasn't avaiable when I bought my Rel. 
Audio Research LS-25 MK2 owners manual online????
Bill, As far as I know, there isn't one! Especially from Audio Research. What are you looking for in particular? I can dig my manual up if you need a question answered? 
Which Martin Logan Speakers should I buy?
I also vote for the Odysseys. My room is the SAME size as yours, and I had Sequels before! You will love the Odyssey, especially after the break in period! Good luck. 
powercords for BAT amp&preamp?
I'm in agreement with Jaguar, removed all my Cardas Golden cross cords, and began using Whales throughout my system. They are very quiet and detailed! I'm using ARC LS25 mk2 and Levinson 335. For the price they can't be beat! Happy hunting. 
Plinius 250III or the Levinson 333
"The older stuff" is very dark sounding. I know, I've owned the older stuff(ML-9), and now own an ML335. There is no comparison. It's your money, I thought about auditioning the Plinius, but did not find a local dealer, and would hate to have to r... 
BEST REAR PROJECTION HDTV??
Bazmataz, I've owned an Elite 510 for almost two years now, and It's worth every penny I spent! Don't get too hung up on which television looks better in the store! They all can be tweaked once you have it at home! Also if you do decide on the Pio... 
Modulus 3A vs ARC LS 15,25 linestages Bal.
Darkmoebius,How old are the tubes in the LS16? Sounds like they need replacing? I heard a BIG difference when I went from single ended to balanced using my LS25 MKII. I had a slight hum that wouldn't go away, as soon as I changed to balanced it di... 
Rega Planet 2000 vs Theta Miles
Artemus, I also own a Pearl transport and to answer your question yes, it does play CD-R's. I've got a copied version of a burn in disc playing right now! I took home a Planet for a couple of days, and then the the Theta Pearl. I feel the Theta to... 
Acurus ACT3 vs B K Ref 20
I'm very pleased with my Ref 20, it's easy to setup and is not bad sounding for a pre/processor. 
Need help: Levinson 333 vs 336
I just picked up a 335 yesterday and I love it! It's driving my Martin logan Odyssey's. Never got to compare it to the 332 which was also for sale.
