Tweaks 'n' Tips

I'm a bit of a novice at home audio, any help would be appreciated. I am setting up a surround sound system around my new 54 inch TV. I just purchased some Bose speakers for my rear two surround speakers. (I have big cabinets in front). However, I really enjoy the Bose speakers for just listening to CD music in the living room. Is there a switch made that would allow me to safely hook up that one pair of Bose speakers in the rear so that they can be both my rear surround speakers AND my "B" speakers off the same amp?

Have you ever heard an audio system that faithfully reproduced the sound of real, live musicians? What was it?

Faithfully reproducing the sound of real, live musicians in our listening rooms is the audiophile's Holy Grail. Have you ever heard a system do this? If so, what was it?

Naim's new "statement" CD player, the CD555 ($20,300 by itself, $28,150 with PS555 power supply), breaks no new technological ground. Rather, in typical Naim fashion, it attempts to optimize 16-bit/44.1kHz CD performance by paying fanatical attention to the devilish details. It doesn't play the DVD-Video, DVD-Audio, or SACD formats, nor does it have a digital output&mdash;and it doesn't create an illusion of higher resolution by upsampling the data.
