Need help making TV decision
In the 40" plus plasma space, there is a commercial version (no tuner, no audio) of the Panasonic 42" for around $2400. Somewhat limited input options. Also a Pioneer for about $1K more. Any opinions on these? Fujitsus are supposed to be great but... 
If you had $12,000 for speakers and amp
I thnk there was a typo in Teejay's spec for the Pass X-600. Perhaps he meant to say 1200 watts.

Semi and Dynnut, would you pick plasma over a 36" HD CRT assuming you had space for a CRT?

Interesting! I have also heard some people say goood things about SD on plasma sets. It may depend on the source (sat or cable) and the set (this was Fujitsu).

Thanks. We want bigger than 30" (40"=42" would be ideal I think). Isn't 36" about as big as you can get in a CRT?As far as price goes, I'd like to keep it under $3.5K, but there might be some wiggle room. > After watching HDTV any source that i...

The problem with wives is they change the room acoustics. 
Reaplce Thiel 3.6's Tweeter
As a Thiel owner, I absolutely agree with Pops: your first move should be to try copper cables and to take the Chang unit out of your system. 
Is There A Moveable Base To Easily Voice Speakers?
One of my audiophile fantasies is to have my speakers move by remote control. Imagine being able to adjust, in tiny increments, forward and backward, side to side, and toe-in. With precise coordinates captured at all times. 
Hard Drive based system
All high-end CD players should include digital inputs these days. I know they don't, but they should, because many of us want to add hard drives as a source. APL HI-Fi has a digital in for their mods. I am going to have Alex add one to my APL play... 
Moon I-3 and Totem Forest?
There's also a speaker break-in trick. Connect your Forests out of phase (so, reverse the leads going to ONE of the speakers), place them face-to-face right up against each other (as close as possible) and play a mono recording or throw the mono s... 
Review: Intuitive Design/Pitcher Sound Labs Summit PSL 624 Speaker
Marvelous review. Does Intuitive Design have a website? Can't find one. 
Tok20000 is going pro
Keith, you still doing this? Anybody know? 
Recommendations to "Professional" Reviewers?
In speaker reviews, I would appreciate some comments on how well the speaker performs at lower volumes. Some speakers don't deliver the goods at all until you crank them, while others can be very satisfying at low volume. I want to know this.I als... 
Thiel CS 1.6 vs ProAc speakers vs ?
I would pick the Thiels. A great speaker. When it comes to resolution, they are champs and, in my experience, ProAcs are not. IMHO.
