Slim Devices and Music Delivery

Kudos to "Phile" to opening eyes to music servers. When you look at JA's test data and then read (twice) WP's review it make one wonder if someone is looking at a $2K player that you should pause long and hard at the Slim Devices unit. There are great Cd players that do not have the DAC specs this unit does. If it is about the music, this may be the future. A little pricey? Perhaps.....

Home theatre bedroom= Midrange suggestions?

Forums

Hello all,
I'm new to the Stereophile community but I have heard great things about this place through other forums/sites that have been of great help to me.

I'm looking to purchase my first surround setup and home theatre system before Summer 07'. Here's what i want:
- Surround and great sound for DVD's, TV, and video games
- Not to worried about music (i have my PC and powered monitors for that...) But DVD music that sounds good is always a plus

Bedroom HT setup suggestions

I don't have the HT setup yet, but you can look at my other post HERE: future setup to see what i'm looking at purchasing. I just want to be prepared and want to know your opinions/suggestions.

A.) Sizes/constraints
- 133" W X 107"H bedroom
- Queen size bed (60"W x 80"H give or take)
- desk for the HT equipment (59"W x 19 5/8"H)
- window (70"W x 40"H)[3.5 feet from floor but shines the whole room, pretty big window for such small room...

"I want this stuff!" Do you really?

I guess I'd have been disappointed if Sam hadn't proved to us once again that he just can't resist a piece of gear with Musical Fidelity on the faceplate. Don't get me wrong, I'm one of the many who use and recommend MF amplification. Either despite that or because of that, I feel obliged to add some comments to Sam's review of the new MF X-Series components.

As history goes, the U.S.A. is weird shape these days. But not all is lost. Yeah, we got our shit: the war in Iraq, a warped, unconnected, hilariously inarticulate jackass for a president, a porous border with Mexico (oh wait, the republicans billion dollar fence will solve that). But just when it looks like it's all sliding down a rat hole it's good to remember that hey, we still got Ted Nugent. U!S!A!U!S!A!U!S!A!

This video is making the rounds of the internets. It's a good way to remember a player who got far less respect than he deserved.
