I'm unhappy with my existing stands (they're not hollow and have begun to buzz with the new system) so I'm on the market for a new pair of bookshelf stands.

Are there any particular brands or models that come highly recommended? Bookshelf speakers are small Amphion Helium2's. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

I tried to search through this forum looking for info on the current Hartley company. Is there a website or contact number for the company? Thanks for any help.

Aloha,

At the recent T.H.E. show, a very cool manufacturer who shall remain anonymous played me some tunes on his system using a Sony Playstation I as his CD source.

It sounded surprisingly good!

Of course, the next stop was Ebay, where these babies sell for about 20 to 30 bucks, including games! Now that one is winging its way westward, I figured I'd ask who's been playing (music) with these babies.

Also, here's a link to a thread about it at DIY Audio forums...

In a little under five months, we've grown to 1000 registered users. That's awesome. Congratulations, "dar," on being the lucky number 1000, and thanks to all of you who participate daily, helping to make this such a wonderful place for exchanging ideas, offering opinions, and sharing the passion and love for music and the hobby.

Right on.

I am by no means an audiophile - and don't have much experience with home stereos. Hoping to find some suggestions for solid set of main speakers. I am looking to keep them around $200-400/pr I will use them about 70% movies 30% music. It was suggested, and fits my budget to buy a Pioneer VSX 815k reciever to power them. With ripping me too bad for my ignorance - anyone want to help??
