Hot Setup? Pre/Pro for HT and 2ch
Several others to consider are the Linn AV 5103, Proceed PAV/PDSD combo (skip the AVP if two channel is a big concren), and, if you can afford it, wait for the Mark Levinson HT processor.....at $25,000, it's a little more than I can spend! Make th... 
I am Not hurting anything right ??
Sccampbell,Regardless of whether or not you use a jumper or not on biwired speakers, you ARE feeding a full-range signal to both crossovers! I agree with the rest, just correcting the oversight.... 
It never ends....
Hey Vermonter, I can totally understand your purchases! Especially since my tax refunds also went to paying off my debt from residency and stereo stuff... I'm single, and fortunately for me, my girlfriend understands (or at least tolerates, as lon... 
Aragon 8008 X5 drives B W Nautilus 803 ?
I used to have an Aragon 4004 Mk II with a pair of B&W 803 Matrix, it certainly had enough power, but I personally found the highs a little harsh for the B&W's.Just my .02 
4 Mono s
Abstract7, I'm glad to hear of your success with different amps on the ML Monoliths, my brother's just finishing his house and plans on using a pair of the monolith III's with the active crossover, a Krell KSA 300s and an Aragon 4004 Mk II (I plan... 
Pioneer DV 38A DD5.1 Selection
I doubt the problem is in the DVD player, you'll need to check out the pre/pro or receiver you're using and set it up to receiver the DVD-A input for those discs.

Help my MonsterPower HTS3500 is humming
I had a similar problem with my system when I added amps to a receiver, it was completely eliminated by plugging into a circuit without the dimmer. (or just replace the dimmer with a regular switch, or replace the light//move it if it has a dimmer...

Killer thread!!I've been into Scotch for several years now and have a few that are almost always kept 'in house'.1) The Macallan 25 yr old, I remember when it was $125. Now at $300, I buy it less, thankfully many friends seem to always remember my...

Time for spring cleaning
I tend to roll over my old equipment for upgrades, but still have some oldies around, like and older HK EQ, some Nordost Blue heaven speaker wire, and an Acurus A250. I had a Rotel tuner that was in the closet for years, now that I upgraded to a s... 
Linn K 600 cables? Any thoughts?
I use the K600's with my system (Linn AV 5103, 5x AV5105 and AV5140's front, AV5120 center) and love them. I haven't gone active yet, but certainly will after returning from Europe in May. I picked up a pair NEW for $140 shipped with super deltons...
