I know this isn't an amp question but this question didn't really fit into one of the other catagories so here goes.

I you were building a house what type of eletricity/wiring would you use to power the entertainment system, and why.

I have a friend who is building a vavcation home and said the guy who does the low voltage electricity wiring in the house is doing the A/V stuff on low voltage and I had never heard of it being done that way.

As always the forums thoughts are greatly appreciated!

One of the writers recommended a Muddy Waters recording in the most recent stereophile issue. It wasn't Folk Singer but another one. Do you know which one it was?

Thanks,

Is this a good turntable? Worth $160 in good condition?

I'm in the market for a new preamp and cd player and have auditioned quite a bit of gear from different manufacturers. One set up that recently caught my attention was ARC's new hybrid LS26 preamp and their CD3 MKII cd player. I noticed that Stereophile doesn't review many of their products at all, and I'm starting to wonder why, it just seems very odd that a company with such a big following as ARC's doesn't get many of their products reviewed by Stereophile.

Right now I have my stereo sitting on a table in my dorm room here at school. My stereo takes up the back part of the table. My bookshelf speakers (Monitor Bronze B2) are at the edges of the table, with my equipment in between.

I used to have the speakers sitting directly on top of the table, but that caused the table top to resonate when music was played at certain frequencies. This caused a significant reduction in sound quality.
