Two subs, yes or no?
Just my 2 cents.. If you can track down a pair of Rocket UFW-10 subs you'd be very happy.. Best small sub I've ever heard, I picked one up a couple years ago (only needed one for the size room we have) and I couldn't be happier. Incredible perform... 
HDMI to DVI adapter?
Actually I bought a 25' DVI to HDMI cable from Monoprice and it's very good, originally had a VGA to VGA line from our computer to our 46" HDTV but the pic was lousy, the 25' DVI to HDMI made a world of difference.. I was very suprised at the qual... 
Warmer sounding CD Players?
Bartokfan, Yes "tube like", sounds wierd I know but it was the best example I could think of for explaining what sound I would like. Warmer/more musical as you stated is just what I'm looking for.. I'd love a true tube player but that is way out o... 
AH NJOE TJOEB vs NAD 542 for rock
Apples and oranges here, for what your going to pay for a new NAD 542 you can get a better Player used here. I also contemplated the 542 to go with my NAD/Pargigm setup but some good advise steered me towards doing just what I suggested here and I... 
Good Budget CD and integrated????
My vote is for the NAD/Music Hall, I have both along with a set of Paradigm Studio 20v3s.. Great setup!! I would also recommend Signal Analog2s interconnects for the Music Hall to NAD 352, made a big difference in imaging and detail.. You can get ... 
How much "bend" are in these inteconnects?
Thank You Neil, Your the best!! Saved me a lot of ugly wall cutting (my wife thanks you too and she never knew I was going to cut holes into the wall lol).. For others reading this post Matchstik man contacted Frank at Signal Cable about getting a... 
How much "bend" are in these inteconnects?
Well I ended up buying a set of Signal Analog 2 Interconnects and a Signal MagicPower digital reference Power Cord here on Audiogon and turns out I couldn't have picked a more stiffer cable out there, I was contemplating cutting in electrical boxe... 
How much "bend" are in these inteconnects?
Sherod, I remember reading somewhere the MAS Blacks(no longer available) were actually an older interconnect that was replaced by the Silvergrays.. True?? Would either of the Audio Arts be more natural/neutral compared to the Silvergreys with the ... 
How much "bend" are in these inteconnects?
Thanks for the offer Neil and I will keep you in mind if I go that route, I actually wrote both Stu and Robert (Mas & Audio Art) and both were very nice and both said the cables should be flexable enough to work.. so NOW I have to decide which...

HDCD a flash in the pan already??
Well now all I have to say on this thread I started is "I HOPE NOT!!" LOL.. I decided on and bought a Music Hall CD-25 w/mods.. I figured it's a great player for the money(which was a consideration unfortunately) with or without the HDCD capabilit...

Mapleleafs3,Tobias,Armstrod, Dwhitt and all of you guys a big THANK YOU for your advice!! The more I thought about it the more you guys made sense.. Spending $400 on a NAD then another at least $50-$100 for cables turned out to be equal to a used ...

Which is Best loudspeaker in the $1000-1200 range?
Tough question, speakers are all a matter of personel preference... My 2 cents just because in my search for the money I went with Paradigm Studios v3s, very good speaker and reviews back it up. I had to keep it small so went with the 20v3s with s...
