Bookshelf Speakers Sitting On Dual Subs?
It will sound very good, but it probably won't be optimal.  Try it and let us know your results.  
Why do speakers improve with more powerful amps?
Loudspeaker design nearly always involves trade-offs regarding sensitivity, size, bass extension and dynamics.  If you don't think a loudspeaker the size of a large refrigerator is too big, then you can have all four.  Lo wattage and high wattage ... 
What happened to all the highend stereo shops
The same thing that happened to all the camera stores.  There used to be a lot more shoes stores too.  
Am I defective?
The people you are watching in the videos are putting on a performance.  It may be earnest, but it's also a shtick.  
What does it take to be a die hard Beatles fan?
Mr. Clapton plays lead on "My Guitar Gently Weeps".  
Have a reflective Memorial day.
It's about those who served and died.  It's not about your opinion whether their wars were good/bad or some other political position.  Show some decorum people.  
Taylor Swift Concert Prices
Apropos of nothing, Aaron Rodgers is going to her Meadowlands show this weekend.  His favorite album is "Folklore".  If the J-E-T-S get to the SB, I bet AR invites her as a guest.

@bdp24 I agree with your comments.  Big labels recording top orchestras with an all analog chain takes us back 40 to 50 years ago.  Times have changed.  
How can you evaluate a system with highly processed music?
There actually are classical recordings where the orchestra or ensemble are playing in a real auditorium and the engineers use what audiophiles call purist recording techniques.  They exist and they are rare.  Most classical recordings involve mul... 
A ridiculously cheap cable riser.
Thanks for the info, but I'm gonna wait for the Mk2 Signature Reference version.  
How can you evaluate a system with highly processed music?
@12many even the most purists of recordings should still be considered processed.  The recordist could select from 200 different microphones when making a recording.  Now couple that with the near countless options at microphone positioning.  The ... 
How can you evaluate a system with highly processed music?
If you are looking to evaluate a system you can do it quicker with test tones.  Dynamics, room interactions, frequency response/balance, stereo imagining and depth reproduction can be determined without listening to actual music.  Of course, follo... 
Why are People Dumping their Audio Research Gear and What Does it Say about them?
If you were a dealer is there any certainty that under the renewed ARC you would continue to be a dealer?  If they really don't know the answer, then they should reduce their inventory now rather than later.  And that's assuming they assume ARC wi... 
Audio Research in Receivership.
I am not suggesting ARC go mass market, but may be they should consider some diversification.  Do they make a headphone amp?  How about they emulate Manley and offer some pro oriented equipment.  When studios switched to digital recording/mixing t...
