| Great country music recording "New York" by the Peter Malick Group with Norah Jones!Country/Blues, I guess you'd call it. Find Jones' two hitalbums rather bland and boring - but wait until you hear her on this album!!! Read somewhere that she prefers country, and you can tell ... | |
| PC suggestions for my new gear I also have the DVP-555ES and could not believe the difference when I installed a Virtual Dynamics Power 3 cordover a Stealth HAC cord. Maybe one can pay more, but this is enough for me! | |
| Has anyone heard Sony's DVP-NC555ES? I picked up the NC555ES several months ago because I needed one multichanger unit for a limited space. My system is mid-level, i.e. Marantz SR-18EX, Thiel 1.5 speakers. Since I've not heard SACD on any other player, Ican't comment on quality. Howe... | |

| Anyone still do insightful or intelligent lyrics? Although C&W is not my first choice, I totally enjoy NanciGriffith, her lyrics, voice and sound! "Other Voices/Other Rooms" got a lot of attention some years back. | |
| In search of a 5.1 receiver with THX?? Check out the reviews for the Denon 3802 or 3803 on audioreview.com or audioasylum.com. I use the first for HT with M&K speakers and couldn't be happier with it. | |

| Denon AVR3803 VS. Marantz SR7300OSE I have the Denon 3802 for HT and am quite pleased, but do not like the sound for just music. Have the Sony DVD-7700 hooked to it for DVD's, and CD's just don't sound as good as they do on the Marantz 18EX THX I havefor my music system with Thiel l... | |

| Marantz receivers any bad vibes for 2ch&HT combo I have the 18EX THX and am using it with Thiel 1.5s, as well as for the occasional DVD and am very happy with it and the power it gives. Am using a Denon 3802 also mainly for HT with M&K THX speakers, and although it sounds great for DVD's, th... | |
