Processor sound comparison- Anthem avm90 vs NAD M17 V2i
@audiotroy  Do you stream or are you playing Blu-ray? What is your source? thanks  
Processor sound comparison- Anthem avm90 vs NAD M17 V2i
@audiotroy I sort of sense the same thing these models were comparable and the nad probably scores more highly because it’s easier to use. Marantz processors are horrifying complicated. If you have more than seven channels, a maestro or trinov... 
Mcintosh mc451 mono - anybody use this new dual amplifier?
@steve59 I own a 611 pair and the need for dedicated outlet is not true. The actual power of these amps use is less than 100 W. A shared 15 amp circuit would work as long as it's not too crowded. Your hairdryer uses a lot more than this amplifier  
Speaker wire impedance? Speaker impedance?
Nobody understands this stuff, except for that guy sitting in the corner that nobody's talking to. Can you imagine if cookbooks started using the word impedance in their recipes. If you don’t understand what someone writes herein, its because th... 
Mcintosh mc451 mono - anybody use this new dual amplifier?
@lewl28  That's the spirit. But why stop there when you can have the MC 2K monos.   
Mcintosh mc451 mono - anybody use this new dual amplifier?
  @lewl28  So you think the MC 3500 is better without ‘biamping’? How do you feel about biamping with the MC 600   600 W amplifier for the bass and tube amp for the upper drivers  
Mcintosh mc451 mono - anybody use this new dual amplifier?
Are you familiar with the 2 301? 901 Version of the 2301 has six small tubes per mono vs 2. They actually have solid state circuitry and the current 2301 model, where now on the 901 Version version it’s pure tube circuitry. Very strange why they ... 
IsoAcoustics GAIA
I like my 200 pound speakers with their casters. They’re on a solid wood floor. I see no need for these isolation things. Gotta be able to move the speakers around. I wish these isolation companies would come up with recessed casters as part of th... 
Rectangular versus fancy design speakers?
@gunderwood This is true but do the other more creative designs really help noticeably change sound. I have a rectangular speaker from 20 years ago, a very heavy piece of wood, and it does a great job transmitting sound throughout the room.  
Rectangular versus fancy design speakers?
harbeth seems nice. Rectangular speakers are generally a lot less than the fancy speakers is there a reason for this other than the looks? can anyone really tell the difference between rectangular speaker and one of those fancy shaped things? M...

I'm thinking about buying a pair of Sonos faber il cremonese.  the 801s you have are really nice.  They are very big and I'm sure are doing really well  
Transparent Audio power cords
I always have a fear of being robbed and tied up with electrical cords. So I bought transparent cables because they are a lot thicker and you really can’t bend them easily so they aren’t very good for tying me up.    
Rays Tubes
I really like their pizzas.

@jth1911  hi, How is your experience with the biamp 451 amplifier?  I'm using the 901 on the 802D3 and I find it really brings out the mid and tweeter which otherwise tends to be buried a bit. @vinylnostalgic
