| Good Small Speakers for Rears in Family Room I use NHT SuperOne Xu and SuperZero Xu mounted on the wall rotated at least 30 degrees and tilted down. They sound very good. I purchased white ones, and my walls are off-white. Amazingly, people come into the room and ask where the speakers are. | |

| Looking to compare SACD sound with redbook Clbeanz, I listen to strictly 2 channel. It bums me out that there is such an outstanding version of DSOTM on multi-channel SACD and nothing similar on 2 channel SACD or redbook. Frankly, it seems pretty lazy on the part of the record company...bu... | |
| How about an Audiogon poll for 2004? Categories? I think it's a great idea, and I'm going to propose a tweak. "Best" implies first hand listening to every release issued during the year. I'll wager no one qualifies. I'd like to propose substituting the word "Favorite" for "Best". We'll all benef... | |
| Looking to compare SACD sound with redbook There is no point in paying extra for SACD, in my opinion. It's nice to have as a curiosity for those certain SACDs that are exceptionally well produced. But, SACD and DVD-A are dead for all practical purposes. The next step is hi-rez downloadable... | |
| Esoteric DV-50: Any cdp's Significantly better? Avguru,I believe if the system we're listening to is transparent enough we will definitely be able to hear general and sonic characteris/differences between each unit and what one unit does better (or worse) than another.Agreed.I will say this (an... | |
| Looking to compare SACD sound with redbook I had an ear opening experience this weekend during a comparative listening session when a fellow Audiogoner brought over his hybrid SACD/CD copy of Pink Floyd's DSOTM. He wanted to demonstrate how you could clearly hear the distant voices at the ... | |
| Esoteric DV-50: Any cdp's Significantly better? Let me ask you Chicago Shoot-out guys a question. If and when this ever occurs, what is it going to tell you about what any given machine is going to sound like in your personal systems? Isn't it conceivable that the machine that is crowned the Ki... | |
| Would Audiogoners be interested in this? Ben, until, "American Idiot", I wasn't fan enough of Green Day to purchase a disk. Give it a listen. I'd be curious to know what you think. | |
| Would Audiogoners be interested in this? Ben, really nice site! Professionally done...in both content and design.I agree with your assessment of Franz Ferdinand. I'm surprised to see Green Day's "American Idiot" missing from the 2004 reviews. It's become my favorite rock CD of the past t... | |
| Do Rel serial numbers tell Age??? Contact Rel with the serial number and they'll be able to tell you when it was manufatured. | |
| McCormack DNA 500 Chip Stern reviewed the DNA-500 at 6Moons, and basically calls the DNA-500 the best solid state amp he's heard. Here's the review. | |
| Tube replacement for the Calypso? Has anyone tried 5751 tubes instead of 12AX7? Apparently the 5751s were developed to address the problems inherent with 12AX7 tubes. | |
| What is " lowball" Mthieme, you mean you're Scottish? Like my great, great grandfather. :) | |
| What is " lowball" OK, Marty, I see your point. However, I'll agree with Don that even given a limited market, and a limited sales history, a 50% offer is lowball if the item is priced close to previous sales. Now, I'll also agree that a lowball offer is as valid as... |
