I HAVE A DREAM (and a dilemma) :-)

First a little background:

As a student and have a limited income, but have got a fair price for my old surround system, changing to stereo now. But my pocket doesn't contain limited depths.

For the new system, I have decided to focus on the speakers as the main and heavy part of the setup (and economy) and buy an amp/player, that, while not being completely up to the price/performance standard of the speakers, will get the job done within certain sense.

Hello all,

My roommate is experiencing an issue with his Klipsch Computer Speakers Whenever he turns up the volume, they crackle. They reach the volume and sound ok at whatever volume, but when he turns it up, the music dies out momentarily and you hear a nasty bit of crackle and fuzz.

Any ideas?

Hi all,

I'd appreciate your help - any thoughts or experiences regarding all three universal players?

1080p capability isn't as big a deal as the sound reproduction, as I'll be spending 95% of my time listening to SACD/DVD-A/CDs. I also have a tube amp, which will likely add a bit of warmth to the equation.

Thanks in advance,

Bill

I have just recieved my record play back from the shop. My god it sounded awesome. The table is a Sota Blue Sapphire with SME arm and clearaudio cartridge. WOW I love records.

I have an opportunity to purchase a pair of used Cremona "full range" speakers for a reasonable price. They sound great with jazz, classic, chamber, solo and voice, which I love. But they sound too "sterile" with rock and roll - they don't swing and the bass doesn't slam. I auditioned them through a Simaudio Moon i5.3. Before I plop down a large sum, I would like to audition these through another amp. Any recommendations for a better amp for these speakers?

Ya know, any time you take the hyperbole to such heights you're just asking for it... might be a new paradigm, but it's always better to under sell than over sell. Tone it down a bit dude and you'll get more interested parties.
