Hello, I am hoping someone here might be able to help. I am getting a loud boom or pop from my amp on a daily basis. It then goes into protection mode. When I unplug the unit, it resets and continues to be fine. Can anyone tell me what might be causing this?

I currently using a Classe 2300 amp for my front B&W 804d speakers and a Rotel 1095 for my center (B&W CMC2) and rears (B&W 683). I am also using the Classe Sigma SSP. I am considering replacing the Rotel with a used Classe 3200 amp. Both amps are 200 WPC but wondered if I would notice any...

Has anyone compared these two units for 2 channel listening? I am currently using the Marantz AV 8801. Both have received nice reviews and they have stated the 8802A is much improved over the 8801. However, I don't think I have ever read a bad review on any type of audio video piece. I...

Hello I currently have a 5.1 system with a classe 2300 powering my B&W 804d's and a Rotel 1095 powering my center and surrounds (B&W 683's). Since I have 2 channels on the 1095 not in use, I was thinking of either bi-amping my surrounds or just using one of the channels to bi-amp my center...

What is more important, an amp or a processor? I am trying to decide if it would make more sense to upgrade my amp or processor. Currently I am using a 5x200 Rotel RMB 1095 amp with a Marantz 8801 prepro. I am I am probably 80% music and 20% movies. I am considering adding either a Classe...

Has anyone had the opportunity to listen to this prepro? Initial comments seem to indicate it is much improved over the 8801 for 2 channel music. It has also been been mentioned that perhaps a higher end amp (Classe, Krell or Mcintosh) is needed in order to hear the improvements (compared to...

Has anyone tried Tidal? This service streams CD quality, compared to Spotify at 320 Kbps. I have tried to compare them but it is a mixed bag for me. If you think Tidal is better, what equipment are you using?

Has anyone listened to this new processor? It is 7.1 but sounds like it is geared more for 2.1 audio. Impressions?

Has anyone listened to either of these? I have read the series 2 is clearer in the mid range but wondered if the series 2 was significantly improved overall.

Anyone like the B&W P7? Is it worth the premium price?

I am currently running my 5 channel system with B&W 804D in the front and 683's in the rear. I am powering them with a Rotel 1095 amp, which has 200 watts per channel. Even though the maximum recommended power for the 804's are 200 watts, would I be better served to add a 2 channel amp, say 300...

I am using a Pioneer SC65 as a pre pro with a Rotel RMB 1095 amp and B&W 804D speakers. I listen to music 75% of the time. I am thinking of upgrading my Pioneer and am considering The Rotel 1572, Marantz 8801 or 7701, and Yamaha 5000. Anyone have experience with any of these? Would all of...

Any thoughts on using an Anthem MRX 710 AVR as a pre-pro? Any users? My dealer is telling me this sounds better than any other AVR on the market and will perform better than a Rotel pre-pro. I am using a Rotel RMB 1095 amp with B&W 804d speakers. I am currently using a Pioneer SC 65 AVR as...

Does anyone have this speaker? Thoughts? I am considering the new B&W CM 10 but I am reading a lot of nice comments on the Salk. Early reviews of the CM 10 have been good. Much better than the CM 9.

Has anyone heard these speakers? Thoughts? I am hearing nice things but wondered what other speakers in this price range ($4000) are also worth looking at?
