UPS or should I Say Oooops
ups is no better or worse than any other shipper. when stuff is properly packed, i've never had a problem. as i mentioned above, they *did* pay a claim, no questions asked, when the shipper *obviously* fraudulently packed damaged goods. in another... 
UPS or should I Say Oooops
ericbee, ewe are mistaken - ups *will* make payment for damaged goods - even if they were poorly packed, or were damaged prior to shipment. i was the buyer in two such incidents, & ups paid both times, w/no hassles - once to a dishonest seller... 
rb 900 arm
talk to origin-live - they say their fully-modded rb250 is better than all the other rega arms - including the ones w/the origin-live mods. they say this is because the less-expensive arms' configuration, while using slightly less-expensive bearin... 
TEACH ME ABOUT BI-WIRE
70242, it's the interaction of the woofer & tweeter w/the amplifier that i'm referring to, - bi-wiring puts distance between these interactions, making them happen closer to the amp, not to the speaker. 
Mark levinson audio system in Lexus?
i commute 90 miles a day, & my main drive has *no* radio - i like to listen to the sweet sounds of that alfa v6 winding out. i enjoy my stereo at home, when in the car, i enjoy *driving*. doug *tired of suv's/fones/trucks/stereos, instead of a... 
cd players with volume control
paulwp, if yer assessment of yamski is correct, then he yust needs to find something like ewe suggest, & run it thru an ase z-man toob-buffer-stage, or the musical-fidelity wersion (not sure of its model # designation). this was the only way i... 
cd players with volume control
i admit i've never compared the pricy stuff such as accuphase & wadia - i guess i can't afford to wring that last *nth* of sound from a format that i never really liked that much, & is in imminent danger of being replaced. but, as far as m... 
BIAMPING
regarding (b), the rating of the speakers really wood depend on the capacity of the amp to deliver current. my electrocompaniet amps, for example, put out serious current & are stable down to at least 0.5 ohm. so, if bridged, they'd still be s... 
Hello? ? ? ? Is Anybody Home ?? ?
when i can get one-o-dem dsl compootah links (not yet awailable in our area), i will consider gettin a compootah yust for hookin' up to the stereo, so i can listen to wrnr in annapolis...doug s.

Bob Marley Reissues
hotcorocket, i tink yure missin' da boat on this thread, if ya don't mind my sayin' so - seems to me it's obviously directed towards marley fans. of *course* if ya don't like marley or this album, ewe won't like it even if the recording is so good... 
opinions on the blue point special
glr, i tink all the posts above are basically correct - w/one glaring exception - the one that sez the bps is a piece of garbage. it may be many tings, but a piece of trash it definitely ain't. may be better or worse in some systems than others, c... 
BIAMPING
ral, there should be no problem w/running a full-range amp signal into each individual driver of a biamp-ready speaker - it wood *not* send hi-freq info to the woofer & bass info to the mid/tweet, unless ewe also went inside & disconnected...
