Need suggestions: vintage speakers

Forums

I have some vintage speakers, but, I need to reduce my collection, (no space), but I have 4 different pairs of speakers, but can only keep one. I own IMF TSL 50 series 2; Altec Lansing model 15; JBL 100 century; and ESS Transliner. All the speakers have strengths and weakness, but I cannot seem to decide which pair to keep! Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thx

<B>Gracenote's CMI:</B> Many audiophiles are joyously embracing high-end music servers in their systems, but one vexing little problem has remained for serious music listeners: The metadata tags that work so well for popular music are completely inadequate for identifying classical works.

Satellite Radio: Deal or No Deal?

Satellite Radio: Deal or No Deal?

While both XM Satellite Radio and Sirius Satellite Radio have been growing their subscriber bases (almost 8 million for each), Wall Street has remained unimpressed. Both firms ended 2006 with stock prices that were approximately half their 2006 levels (Sirius at $3.54 and XM at $14.45).

Off Topic Posting

Dear Members,

Have we grown our community to the point of perhaps needing a more dedicated moderator?

This off topic posting, in many cases, is getting a bit out of hand. There would seem to be some regular posters who obsessively pick apart posts only to lead the thread, and other posters responses to same, into a free for all!

I see no indication of our current moderator attempting to curb these actions, and worry it may ultimately be an undoing of participation by current and future members.

How much? for a yet nuther unit using old chip ckts...with it's RAZOR SHARP machining!!! Homie don't want no cuts from poorly finished products....how many THOUSANDS and teh edges are razor sharp, that comes from cheap stamped processes to make stuff, cheap stuff. Godo maching well finished has smooth finished edges, i bet this is just another grossly overpriced stamped consumer product hyped into the stratosphere.

Outlaw/digital audio question

Forums

I am new at this, obviously, and am interested in beginning to build a better system. I was wondering what is the deal with digital coaxial and optical cable in audio systems. The Rega Apollo has these connections for digital audio, but the Outlaw seems to only have analog inputs. I thought, from reading, that receivers now work with digital audio, but this must not be entirely true. What am I missing here? Who is lying to me?
