Hi-Fi Power Conditioner ?
Hey Y'all,Here’s a third vote for the BPT. I've had the 2.5 in my system for the last 6 years and it is the only piece of equipment left of the system I originally had when I purchased it. It made the sound come alive and it has saved my system on... 
Small sub
Hey Y'all,MJ Acoustic. Small, somewhat powerful, depending on which one you purchase, and they go very low. I'm running two Reference 150 Mk IIs. The power is rated at 150 watts and they go down to 13 Hz at -3db. Dimensions are 11.8"W X 14"H X 11.... 
Which group of speakers do you favor?
Hey Y'all,I'm currently running an all Von Schweikert system right now but I have always been curious about, in no particular order:PMC, have read a lot about them and they are used in all kinds of recording studios. They are very accurate.Sonus F... 
Processor Help...Please
Hey Y'all,I agree with Elevick. I would keep the HPA-3 for the center and rears and get a nice two channel amp for the mains. I'm not sure if the B&K has an analog pass through, but if it does, I would connect the CDP to take advantage. There ... 
Time to change. But to what?
Hey Y'all,I would add Von Schweikert to your short list. I've owned a few pairs over the last four years and I've not been disappointed by any of them.........John 
Best multichannel amp for music?
Hey Y'all,I don’t think the issue you are having is that the amp and speakers are mismatched. I'm not disputing anything that Shadorne has said because it all makes sense. But to me the problem is now that you have an amp worth its weight, The The... 
For the money, Best set up for HT and music
Hey Y'all,Knownothing, or is it Readnothing? This is what I posted on 4/17, my last post; "Knownothing, check my first post, you will see that I set up a system, with separates that fit into the budget and will unquestionably give better sound the... 
For the money, Best set up for HT and music
Hey Y'all,Knownothing, check my first post, you will see that I set up a system, with separates that fit into the budget and will unquestionably give better sound then any receiver mentioned in this thread. My second post recommends a source that ... 
For the money, Best set up for HT and music
Hey Y'all,I don't know anything about Aperion speakers, so I cannot comment on them. The VS speakers are far and away better, price for performance, then the equivalent offering from B&W. I feel comfortable saying this since I've sipped from b... 
For the money, Best set up for HT and music
Hey Y'all,For the source, I would recommend either the Denon DVD-3910 for $500.00 OBO on Audiogon or the DVD-2910 for around $200. If you haggle about $300.00 off everything else in the system you can get the 3910 and still be around your budget. ... 
For the money, Best set up for HT and music
Hey Y'all,This would be the system I would put together with a budget of $4500.00.Front speakers- Von Schweirert VR-2 full range floor standersNot to big for your room but very capable speakers. I use them now as my rears but have used them up fro... 
Does anybody know when...
Hey Y'all,I received an email stating that it was going to be held in NY. 
How good is the Lector CD player?
Hey Y'all,I had an opportunity to hear the Lector, which I owned, and the Audio Aero Capitole MkII and I felt the Audio Aero was better, but not by much. Considering the price difference between these two players I would have to choose the Lector.... 
Lector 7T and tube rolling
Hey Y'all,I had this player for two years and I loved it. I also used a set of NOS Telefunken tubes and they were noticeably better then the stock tubes. I used Herbie's Halos that were also very beneficial to the overall sound. And finally I had ... 
best all-round,full range at $2000
Hey Y'all,My vote goes with Rottweiler and the VR-2's. I'm using a pair, usually the rear channels in my surround set up, as my main left and right until I receive my VR-4jr MkII's. I can honestly say these speakers are incredible. I can't believe...
