| My Long List of Amplifiers and My Personal Review of Each! @whitecamaross I am a long-time user of Audiogon to buy and sell gear, but I don't pay too close attention to these forums and hardly ever post anything. I have to say though, that I love this thread and am now in the habit of looking at it almos... | |
| $6000 budget question I used to own F30's in the early 2000's, and they are at the top of list of equipment I regret selling. Amazing performance for a reasonable list price of $3500 back in the day. Since I foolishly sold the F30's, it's been a revolving door of speak... | |

| B&W 804 nautilus OR Revel f30 I narrowed my choice down to these two earlier this year and ultimately decided on the F30's, as they offer better bass extension and seem just as good (or better) as the N804's in other areas. So far, I've been very happy with the F30's. Good luc... | |
| Outdoor antenna setup Hello Len. The classic outdoor antenna for FM is Channel Master's Stereo Probe 9, a 9-element directional antenna which has unfortunately been discontinued. The Winegard HD6065 is very similar and is still available for about $75. It should be mou... |
