to buy or not to buy acurus act3 200five combo?
I HAVE BEEN USING THE ACT3 IN MY HOME THEATER ROOM WITH NO PROBLEMS . I HAVE ALSO BEEN USING A A100 IN MY BEDROOM SYSTEM . AS LONG AS YOUR SPEAKERS ARENT TO BRIGHT THIS WOULD BE A GOOD SYSTEM FOR MUSIC & MOVIES . 
McIntosh MA 6500
Sam Tellig of Stereophile wrote a rave review on the 6900.The main differences were power ratings, equalizer and theautotransformers that the 6500 didnt have.He even bought the review sample. 
Adcom 2535 Amp for HT. Any instructions or help?
Hi ,I use a 2535 amp along with a 555 Adcom for the front2-channels .They both have bi-polar tech.,and have plenty ofpower for home theater systems . Never had a problem with Adcom products . 
I need amplification.....
Try a Acurus amp ,they have a good clean sound. I use a A100in my bedroom system with PSB IMAGE 4Ts . Very similar to the sound of a Adcom amp . Usually you can a great deal on this American built amp ,good luck. 
I have a 2 channel set up. What is the best way
I would buy a 3-channel amp for the center & rear speakers.Then all you would need is a dvd player with d/d decoder built in it. 
McIntosh transistor tuners....any good ones?
If you cant find a Mac thats in your budget try aTandberg with analog tuning.I have a Yamaha thats prettygood ,but not as good as a Mac or Tandberg. Good luck ! 
Y connector to use a sub
Best Buy sells Monster Cable cables & connections.
