| Best concert you've attended Rush- The 2112 tour. Portland OR Memorial Coliseum | |
| Favorite Led Zeppelin Album I'd have to agree on Houses of the Holy. I spent hours gazing at the cover art while the music was blaring. | |
| Am I no longer allowed to consider myself an Audiophile? Right there with you dynacohum! I'm over the moon with a HiFiRose 520 and a pair of new Cornwall IV's. Could I have stressed and spent 2-5X the money for a more elaborate set up? Absolutely! However, I hit one button and become immersed in the mus... | |
| Speaker Help Please: Floorstanders around $1Ok to fill very large space with no sub You can't go wrong with Klipsch Cornwall IV's. They'll certainly fill that space and the need for power is an easy solve. | |
| Shouldn't it be crisper/cleaner/more vibrant? Spoke to my guy at Upscale Audio and figured it out! Thank you for all the input. (when in doubt, read the manual). | |
| All-In-One Options Check out the HIFI Rose SR520. Love my all in one! Plenty of power & features for most any situation. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Quiet... Diana Krall, This Dream of You. My system loves this CD! Not so quiet... Stonebroken, All in Time Darwin, Distorted Mirror | |

| Whats playing on your system today? Last evening I listened to the newest Gino Vanelli release "The Life I Got." It's really good. Vocally, he hasn't lost much at all at age 73. | |
| The HARD ROCK & HEAVY METAL Thread Continued Darwin-Man vs. Machine Stonebroken-Save Tomorrow Jelusick-Chaos Master | |
| How much do you have to spend? Very happy that I paired a HIROSE RS-520 with the Cornwall IV's. The capability of the RS-520 will meet audio needs for years possibly decades to come. 250W with Klipsch speakers is a bit of an overkill but the HIROSE is extremely clean. Highly re... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Currently, I can't get enough of bands: The Pineapple Thief, Darwin and IQ. | |
| Speaker Help Please: Floorstanders around $1Ok to fill very large space with no sub You can't go wrong with Klipsch Cornwall IV's. For under $7k you can get all one would ever want. |
