| Classe, Sunfire, or EAD When I was in your position I listened to the EAD, but was much more impressed by the sound, ability to upgrade, and the customer service offerred by the Proceed AVP. Give it a listen. Good Luck | |
| SACD : why ? I agree with the others that said the survival of SACD will come down to the availability of music. As it stands now SACD seems to be a purely "audiophile" format. And, as much as I hope it will survive, there has got to be a reason that we haven'... | |
| 25 foot bi-wire speaker cables that won't bust the bank? To keep costs low I have to agree with others on the KK 8TC. | |

| surround question It sounds as if the rear speakers will be receiving the same signal as the side speakers so as far as the surround aspect is concerned there won't be any. Personally I would just connect the two rear speakers and enjoy the movie/music as intended.... | |
| Krell HTS vs Proceed AVP I love my AVP, but I haven't heard the Krell. Also, Proceed is said to be offering both a software and hardware upgrade for the AVP after the release of the AVP2. Don't know what the cost will be though. Lastly, Proceed/ML offers the best customer... | |
| Power cable and proceed. Which one ? With my AVP I've used Shunyata's Black Mamba, BMI's Whale Elite, and MIT's Z II. The BMI, for me, showed the most favorable results. Hope this helps. | |
| Sony 7700 play cdr's? Yes, the 7700 plays CDRs | |
| I like my Absolute Power Cords Plug them in? | |
| Stunned by a cable upgrade Oval 9 bi-wire is outstanding in my system as well. | |
| Unusual Music Recommendation Goo Goo Dolls should be a part of this list as far as "Alternative" is concerned. Under the heading of unusual I strongly suggest Ministry, may not be your cup of tea, but very strong musical performances to be appreciated. Will add albums and tra... | |
| Where will be hi-end audio in 2050? The only music will be Wyld Stallyns, and it will save the world. Party on dudes! Be excellent to each other! | |
| PARADIGM REFERENCE SPEAKERS Oh yeah, amplification too! Mostly, I've heard them driven by Rotel equipment. Now I don't know enough about all the dynamics involved in amplifiers. I know you put this plug here and that wire there and what MY ears like. That being said, I liked... | |
| PARADIGM REFERENCE SPEAKERS I just recently auditioned the 80s and 100s. Both are great speakers. The 80s, to me, sounded warmer, but at some points also seemed sloooowww. The 100s on the other hand, while seemingly more open, with some songs tended towards the bright side. ... | |
