Anyone heard the Thiel Subs
I heard the same combo at Thiel as David99. Echo his opinion. I've been saving my pennies ever since... 
Which surr/proc to go w/ Krell & Thiels?
I have a setup very similar to yours. I have Thiel 3.6's on the front, an MCS1 for the center. I have Krell KAV 2250/3250 amps. I use the Krell Showcase pre-pro that I got used on Audiogon for less than 3 grand. I have been extremely pleased. It w... 
which auduo research pre?
I have owned the LS2B and the LS25. I agree with Rsa, for around a grand, the The LS2 is a nice bang for the buck. 
Marantz vs. Pioneer Receivers
Marantz and Pioneer both made good receivers, but I preferred Yamaha over either of them. In fact, I still have a Yamaha in my bedroom system.

Getting into Opera... need advice
I am, admittedly, a newbie to opera as well. However, I would like to recommend to you a female vocalist by the name of Sara Brightman. She has been around awhile. She has the voice of an angel, with a range most singers would kill for. None other... 
Apple Ipod
Thanks for all the good advice. I opted to go with the 20 GB version. And I sprang for the Shure E-2 earbuds. Just couldn't bring myself to spend more for the earphones than the Ipod. I've had it for a little over a week now and have loaded it up ... 
Ads with "Checkup"
I would use it as a way of reassuring a potential buyer that the amp was up to spec and had been checked out by the manufacturer. Kind of like having a mechanic check out a used car. To make sure there aren't any trouble spots lurking below the su... 
Decording mode for TV
Try experimenting. What's best is what sounds best to you in your room with your system and your acoustics. 
Pioneer DV-59 AVi Universal Player
I am getting ready to buy one next week. Just as soon as that bonus check gets here... :0)As I understand it both the audio and video sections are superior to the DV-47, which I now own. Can't wait to find out.

Sorry if we hit a nerve Charles. I just felt so fortunate to have an understanding wife, that I don't mind spending some on her every now and then. For designer handbags and diamond earrings. Oops. Almost forgot. Cashmere sweater. 
keeping collection organized?????
Oh, if only I had that much time. I do good to keep mine in alphabetic order by artist.

Slartibartfast, you're a genius! Thanks a bunch. 
charging tax in Classified Ads??
Get used to seeing more of this. The states are desperate for more revenues, so they are getting far more aggressive in enforcing their sales/use tax rules. Basically if the seller has a physical presence in your state, such as a store, a warehous... 
DVD Flip Disk Moves Forward
I read the same article. It looks like at least some of the suits in the record biz are finally starting to "get it". It's a "value thing stupid". Once they start to realize they have to offer more value to the consumer, then we start to make prog...
