im looking to spend at most 150, preferibly less than that on a nice car amplifier. I need at least 1600 watts for my subs and tweeters. If anyone has some good suggestions i would love to hear them.

Anyone heard or lived with this little gem. Auditioned this weekend amongst many others in the 2K price range. One of the most "open" box floorstanders I've heard in that price range, and oodles of detail. Needless to say I was impressed. Probably a good thing the dealer only special orders them otherwise who knows!

can anyone comment about this new proac studio series ?

Just finihsed reading TB Bio The Good Life. Very interesting person and a great talent. I doubt that anyone can claim the longevity as his professional career span is approaching 60 years. Reading about the business side of the record business is very interesting and it is no wonder the bigs have so much trouble. Makes you wonder how many really good A&R people there have really been over the years. It also is a testament that a successful career full of extensive traveling, vices, and time away from home often causes domestic strife.

I want to set up my Apple G5 to replace my audio system and I was looking for a high-end audio card and speakers. Little help please.

I posted this on Hi Fi choice forums, and haven't received an appropriate answer yet. I have a large collection of rock 45rpm 7 inches, which I know can sound good...but my Music Hall table's tracking angle is wrong, and you get that characteristic weak, distorted sound from the 7 inches. I was wondering if anyone ever made (or still does make) a dedicated, 7 inch ONLY player. Note, I'm not talking about the retro suitcase players or portable players, but an actual semi-hi fi table (but like..a "mini" version

For fun I added a Sonic Frontiers SFL-1 to my system. I used to use my DAC to do double duty. I was prepared not to like the sound, but my wife and I both felt there was a significant improvement particuliary vocals and guitar.

The SFL-1 is a single ended hybrid with 1 tube. I am wondering if a fully balanced product with more tubes will improve the sound that much better.

If the above is true can anyone recommend a balanced tube pre that won't break the bank?

Does anyone know the key codes necessary to unlock the DVD-A feature on the Cal Audio Labs CL-20? Thanks!
