Looking for opinions on floorstanders in the 1,200.00 to 1,600.00 USD range. Was heading for the Studio 60s v.4 with the G-Pal tweeter, but then read KR's review of the Revel F12 and went into vapor lock. Anyone have any A/B experience with these speakers? Would probably buy all matching speakers for 5.1 set-up but usage would be for 75% music/ 25% movies. Room 15 x 20, Yamaha RX-2400 av receiver, Denon 1930ci universal player, Signal Cable all around. Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi, I'm new to this form and had my old Phase Linear 400 series 2 power amp die last week. I was using it in my home stereo hooked up to my faithful Crown ic-150 Pre-amp. I was wondering if a XTI1000 would be a good amp to replace my Phase with? I noticed it does not have RCA jacks in the back, where do I get interconnects to hook my ic-150 pre-amp up. Is this a high fidelity amp, and would it compare to my 200 watts per channel Phase. I would like to buy Crown based on the reliability of my Crown pre-amp.

Hi,

this is my first post! Here in Austin they keep advertising HD radio, where there are additional channels. Has anyone got one. I know Polk makes one , is NAD getting into this area also?

...Has anyone heard a pair of Krell LAT-1000?
Thanks in advance,

Does anyone know of any specific stereo receivers that automatically restart after losing power?

The epic journey of digital archiving of my cds continues,
but what codec to use, Apple lossless would give 1000 cds on a 500g drive, the compression is gentle and may not be noticed, BWAV files would offer 600 cds and be future proof
and digital clones.
I have not yet compared PCM/WAV/Lossless.
Has any one experience of the codecs in comparison?
