| What is "low ball" I've had multiple low offers that have ended up resulting in a sale thru negotiation. As others have said, you never know. I alway leave myself some wiggle room between what I would like to get and what I am willing to accept. I pay attention to l... | |
| Classe move to China It would be great to hear some facts regarding these 10 nuclear accidents that the US has had. Where and when? The radioactive liquid and gases at TMI were within the containment building. I'm not sure if you understand the way that building works... | |
| looking for advice on bookshelf speakers As mentioned above, the Fritz Carbon 7's would be a good choice in your situation. Audition them if you can. | |
| Clear Day Cables Speaker Cables I will echo the positive comments above. I own a set of double shotguns with jumpers. Really, really good cables for the money. Also as stated above, Paul is a true gentleman that lets you try his cables in your system for no cost other than retur... | |
| Emotiva amplifiers review/experience? 12-19-11: StorymHere is an idea. If Bryston has a 20 yr. warranty, are they saying their products won't last that long?That makes absolutely no sense. They are confident that their products will last that long, and history has proven that out. Any... | |
| Vintage speakers from the 70's and 80's Many great suggestions here. If you are looking for monitors I would also throw in the Fried Beta or Beta Signature and any version of the Fried model C. | |
| First foray into separate 2-channel amp, 200wpc I can't speak for the McCormack, but the Aragon 2004 Mk II is a lot of amp for the money and should drive and control your speakers with no trouble. It certainly outclasses the Adcom, IMO, as I've owned both. You should be able to find it for less... | |

| how to trigger my sub amp when main powers up. From his description, I don't believe the subs are powered. He states that he is using a HK3490 to power the subs in his main speakers. The HK3490 is a 2 channel receiver. It sounds as if he is trying to biamp his mains using both the AVR and the ... | |
| how to trigger my sub amp when main powers up. So if I understand, you are using an AVR to power the satellite section of your main speakers. Then you are using the left/right main out of the AVR to the preamp inputs of a 2 channel receiver to power the passive woofer section of your mains. Is... | |
| Sonic Frontier or Modwright 9.0SE for Aragon Amp From looking at the BAT website, they state a minimum amp input impedance of 10k ohm for that pre. Your amp should work fine. You could always email BAT and verify that as well. They are very good about answering questions concerning their gear. | |

| Sonic Frontier or Modwright 9.0SE for Aragon Amp I agree with Cathode. At least consider a BAT in your price range. I have not tried the SF or Modwright, but have had both a BAT VK5i and VK31 with my Aragon Palladium II monos, and they work very well together. I still own the VK31. The Palladium... | |
| What does it take to qualify as a reviewer? Mapman, I agree with what you are saying about how the other sites do a great job of tracking overall rankings. Audio Review is another site that does this. I also agree that the people on this site are more OCD about their gear. My point was, why... | |
| What does it take to qualify as a reviewer? I don't get the difference between people on Amazon, Crutchfield and this site. All of the above site reviews are done by people that have the equipment in their system, they all have an agenda, and they all have a bias. What makes any of them dif... |
