different strengths for different cables?
I'll be biamping from four out of seven amp channels on an Arcam AVR. They are all rated identically. Good info about making sure the compatibility of all the interconnect components.What about the materials of the interconnects? Silver, copper, e... 
Biamping Questions
I'm thrilled to hear that SignalCable is good. I've emailed with Frank a few times, and he comes across as a great guy--very knowledgable and helpful.More thanks to y'all for the input. We'll see what else this thread generates.rr 
Biamping Questions
Thanks so far, folks. I've read in reviews that one great way to run the Arcam AVR 307 (7 X 100) with a 5.1 A/V set up is to use the two extra amp channels to biamp the two speakers through which I'll do my music listening. Outlaw also mentions th... 
Best "album" of 2006
I think this is 2005, but has anybody heard Sufjan Stevens's "Come On Feel the Illinois"? Great title, and it's one of the most interesting and experimental pop/??? cds I've heard in decades. 
Best Live Shows 2006 ?
Actually, I'm hoping it's either Radiohead at Bonneroo or Roger Waters doing Dark Side of the Moon in Detroit.

Personal speaker evolution
Started out with nice little KLH. Moved on to classic Advents. Tried some locally made Chicago Speakerworks. Finally got dream speakers (at the time) ADS L810s used. Got tempted by NHT, but added Klipsch subwoofer to ADS. My son blew the ADS up li... 
Senn 600 vs AKG 601or 701
Still waiting for my 701s. The headfi debates rage on, of course. I'd like to find out what amps people are using with the AKGs. I'm considering X-cans, the Woo 3, the Little Dot III, and the Meier Corda Aria. Any experience?rustler 
Senn 600 vs AKG 601or 701
Hi Lightfla,I had exactly the same question and asked around a lot. I finally got the answer I went with from a sales rep at Headroom. He asked me what kind of regular speakers I like, and I defined my tastes in terms of my long love with ADS L810...
