Live concerts on DVD have been totally neglected by audio and video magazines such as Stereophile, TAS and their home theater magazines. Some of the people interested in live music on DVD never watch movies and never buy music without the video component to it. All they care is live concerts! How did audio and video magazines miss that? Audio magazines always brag about speakers capable of reproducing live music. I think video lift not only the sound proper but helps appreciate the music as well.

I live in an area that in the late summer experiences some brown outs and power outages. So I purchased a Panamax M5510 power conditioner ($1300). This unit has high current outlets for amps and has isolated and balanced modes along with analog voltage and amp meters. It also protects against brown outs and surges. The company states that it is more of an "audiophile" unit. My question is that since I feel that I need to protect my gear, what are your opinions on this unit or other "high end" power conditioners. I don't want to degrade the sound at all.
Thanks,
Don

greetings all:

Looks like creative will be the first to have a 32gb flash player! See Creative Zen to come in new 32GB and 2GB capacities

Information on this is also made available on their us and uk sites. Finally, there's such a high capacity flash player! Should be sufficient to keep all my doc, music and videos

Can anyone give me some feedback on these speakers. They will be coupled with a Pioneer Elite VSX-92TXH, Velodyne 12" sub, and two Outlaw Audio 2200 monoblocks. (one for each speaker)

I want to order this week, so please help!!
