Totally Confused about home theater
How about a reasonable middle ground, Audiotomb? One does not have to abandon HT all together to have a satisfying all-in-one system. Just understand that there are compromises. . . | 15 |

Musical or scientific/technical background?
Doug28450: it is "grammar", not "grammer". I personally have no musical training, but have always loved to listen to music. My Ph.D. is in economics though I. . . | 15 |

Best Pre-amp for Bi-amping?
I'm in the same situation, and I'm currently using Y adapters in my biamp setup (passive biamping, by the way). I guess I'd get some improvement with an active setup (though I'm a. . . | 8 |

MC-1 or Ref 30
I'd advise against the Denon receiver as a processor. I did this for a while w/ separate amps and a separate 2-channel pre-amp for music. When I got my B&K ref 30 I noticed a . . . | 7 |

Don't starve your amp but running through another device. Just leave it plugged in and on. Some amps supposedly benefit from keeping them on all the time (see the threads). If . . . | 6 |
