| Philips SACD1000 vs Sony DVP-9000ES If you are ambitious send the 9000es out to be moded and then it will beat most anything, with in reason of course, I am sure the accuphase unit will do a better job but even after mods still costs twice as much. Plus if you are like me it is cool... | |
| Girlfriends and wifes, how do YOU cope? Hay kelly do you go with your wife when she goes to europe or do you stay home and enjoy your upgrade? just curious, seems like a good idea either way | |
| Are you Guys Rich or What!? I must have missed this thread, dunno how that was possible??? Well I read it all and there are a lot of good points made, I agree that most serious audiophiles will upgrade to the major's if/when they have the money to do it. I started with a sys... | |

| SS amp/preamp suggestions for Avalon Arcus? Good point, just trying to give S2K another option, I suppose it depends what one is looking for sound wise. Detail=SS, warmth=Tube either way I am sure it will bring a smile to your face. | |
