I need some direction

Hi James
Here's that link mentioned above
Copy and paste the link. It's a well written description comparing the Portal and the Creek.. The guy did a good job trying to explain the difference.

I would also like to add that I had a Portal Panache here for about five months. I sold it after Buying a Unison Unico. Now I have sold the Unico and bought another Panache..forget the remote, I want better sound.

Thanks for the input,

As much as I would like to go up the YBA line I also want to stay married to my wife. I may have to wait a little while before parting with $$$ for a Passion 200.

The Placette seems nice but I want to keep my system as simple as possible.

Thanks Shoe for the review. I'm leaning in the direction of the Panache. Thanks again !!!

James, stay married to your wife? Get your priorties in order my man...lol..the waf plagues us all...

Just in case you are checking back. The Panache finally came in today and I've been sitting here listening to it for the last two hours. It's like my speakers were sick and have gotten over a bad cold! More open soundstage, wider , deeper, cleaner, bass is livley and the Panache seems to do it with ease.. Just what the doctor ordered. After awhile i just listened to the music instead of analyzing the system..a welcome relief.
I was thinking about changing speakers but going to hold on to these Revel F 30's for awhile, seems to be a very good match with the Panache.
good luck
Matt
