My Love Will Follow Me

My love for the Vivian Girls only grows and grows: I love them more today than I did yesterday, but not as much as I’ll love them tomorrow. Their 2009 album, <i>Everything Goes Wrong</i>, continues to sound fresh and exciting with each play on my turntable. And they’ve got a new 7-inch single available from their own <a href="http://www.freewebs.com/viviangirls/wildworld.htm">Wild World Records</a>. Perfect for a sunny Cinco de Mayo like this one, the A-side has Cassie confessing, “I can hardly wait until the summer comes,” while Katy and Ali echo the feeling with handclaps and angelic backing vocals. The B-side is a cover of the Chantels’ “He’s Gone,” which I had the great and unforgettable pleasure of hearing performed live, a cappella, <a href="http://forum.stereophile.com/photopost/showphoto.php/photo/2149/passwor… Bamboo Beach</a> <a href="http://blog.stereophile.com/stephenmejias/what_happened_in_puerto_rico/… Puerto Rico</a>.

I want my first 'real' 2.1 for some good music and movies...

Hi All,
I joined the 'club' since I would like to upgrade from my old panasonic all.in one bought 5yrs. ago at the mall x 200$...

My goal would be to get a bit more hi fi and get a stereo system that will deliver some great sound on movies and give me some pleasure when listening to music in the living room.

My idea was for a bose 3.2.1 since its my ignorant conception of hi.fi...
Ive browsed some reviews and it looks very wrong!

I don't want an integrated dvd or so, nor a 5.1 since Im not willing to run cables everywhere now.

Sound reflection in rooms

In a podcast at UltimateAV recently, JA stated that loudspeakers would have to be the same shape of the instrument they're reproducing for it to have correct fidelity. But most of the music we listen to is a *blend* of instruments whose soundwaves cancel each other out.

Then, for vocal music, I doubt the person(s) physical shape would matter. The same goes for piano - is it affected by the shape of its soundboard ? How about digital pianos ? What "shape" do they have ?
