thoughts on Shanling MC30 and recomend speakers (under $500.00) for this 3watt output unit?

I was thinking of getting a Shanling MC30 for my bedroom (the room is very small) and was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on it and on what speakers to go with. I do not want to spend over $500.00 for the speakers since the unit itself is only $1000.00. The catch is they have to be able to be powered by only 3 watts... The Stereophile review of this unit says it can do done but gives no examples. Keep in mind size is an issue so I'm looking for something like the Epos 3. Would they work??? Any help appreciated.

What was the first component (or components) you purchased and what year was it?

In light of last week's question, it seems appropriate for reader Glenn Bennett to ask: "Let's see how far back we can go. I caught the bug with a Knight reel-to-reel in 1955!" <P> What was the first component (or components) you purchased and what year was it?

Triad Design System Seven satellite/subwoofer loudspeaker Measurements

Triad Speakers has been designing and manufacturing three-piece (woofer and two satellites) loudspeaker systems since 1982. The company was formed that year by designer Larry Pexton and has enjoyed steady growth in their market niche. Their original three-piece loudspeaker was a collaboration with Edward M. Long, of "Time-Align" fame, and Ron Wickersham. It was felt that the ideal loudspeaker would have the least cabinet interference, thus the design decision to keep the woofer separate and the midrange/tweeter enclosure small. Triad speakers were selected for inclusion in the Consumer Electronics Show's Innovations 1990 Design and Engineering Showcase, the sixth time the company's products have been selected for this award.

Matthew Polk's Surround Bar 360

Matthew Polk's Surround Bar 360

You'd think I would have learned to trust Matthew Polk by now, but I attended an NYC demonstration for his new SurroundBar 360 with relatively low expectations. That's because there's a current vogue for low profile, multichannel "bars" that give flatscreen monitor viewers a low profile, single-mount solution to the "problem" of all those extra speakers a multichannel A/V system requires.
