    The Marantz AV7705 Surround Processor/Pre-Amplifier Giveaway is Here!

    I've always had a pre-processor. I am all about the sound quality, but would love to upgrade to a modern prepro that has quality sound as well as video. I've owned an Audio Refinement Pre 5, Classe SSP 75, Onkyo Integra, and a Marantz NR. I use my old Classe S700 stereo amp to power the fronts...

    Help with new 2.0 rig.

    Yeah, I'd considered that, but would just as soon run the good speakers directly from an amplifier.........the speaker selector is really for background music on the whole house audio set up.

    Chicago's Legenday Maxwell Street

    My dad always talked fondly of Maxwell St. I don't know much about it, though. He always talked of it as an outdoor market where you could buy anything and everything. People selling things from their trunks, food vendors...a spot you could bring the family to.......now the only thing left of...

    12 Channel Amplifier or 2 Channel w/ Speaker Selector?

    I think the op is looking for background music with 6 zones. Less about SQ and more about control for each room, imho. I like the music louder than my wife. Hence, if she is in the office and I am in the kitchen, without seperate volume controls, you can't tailor the music for each room. I'm...

    Audio Brands - country of origin?

    James B Lansing is an audio hero. The first audiophile I ever knew owned a pair of Hartsfields- they were fifty years old and still sounded sweet. JBL FTW JBL - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    12 Channel Amplifier or 2 Channel w/ Speaker Selector?

    I think acudeftech uses his speaker selector with all the speakers in one spot. If you're looking for whole house audio, the economical way to go is a two channel amp and a speaker selector with volume control for each zone. The next step up is the multichannel amp run to each zone or room with...

    HK AVR354 Issue - No display

    Nice job. I'm a terrible solderer, and my years of ironworking have left my hands less than ready for fine work. I'm jealous. Of course we want vids and pics!

    Quad and Aperion 2.1

    I am selling a 2.1 system consisting of a Bravus 8D subwoofer by Aperion, and two Quad 12L powered monitors. All three items were bought b-stock. I can find no blemishes on the sub, and the monitors have some cloudy spots in the lacquer from the factory. The finish is fine, just when the light...

    Infinity speakers, Stereo Magazines and VHS stuff for sale

    I owned a pair of SM122's (12" Woofer) and they rocked. Those poly cell tweeters were really sweet, too. I think I paid $500 in the mid eighties. The downside is they have a vinyl wrap. I refuse to own vinyl wrapped speakers...........

    Aperion Verus Grand and Ascend Sierra Tower

    I think some have missed your no return statement, Fowl. Glad to hear you are on the mend. I should also mention that when people mention Philharmonic, in order to get a veneered cabinet you need to order the Phil 3's which are $3k. I have no experience with either speaker. I do however own...

    Marantz AV7005 Networking A/V Processor Review

    That is really really a hard concept for a huge portion of this hobby to grasp. 0s and 1s are 0s and 1s. Amps are amps. Wires are wires. Get over it and move on. See the speakers, be the speakers, hear the speakers.
