Moving to new house-need advice on HT
If the previous owner removed the ceiling speakers and you need to buy some, then get timbre matched. If speakers are currently there, and you want to replace, get timbre matched. It makes no sense to replace a non timbre match with another non ti... 
Forward or recessed sound?
Agree with zavato, if the sound is just forward or just recessed, then it must be very 2 dimensional. A good amp should have layering sounds from upfront to the rear.

Vintage tube amp resurrection with Variac?
I have done this a few times using this technique. There are different opinions out there, but an excellent audio technician told me this is what he did, and never had a problem, so that was good enough enough for me. Make sure you have speakers o...

Audiogon has no 'likes'
And I also thank those for the tips on ad blocking extensions. After a little investigation, I decided to try "uBlock Origin" with Chrome, which according to reviews, works extremely well and requires much less CPU and memory. Since the installati...
