audio server via AirTunes follow-up?
Piqued by JA's somewhat recent investigation of Apple's AirPort Express & Apple Lossless via AirTunes, I suggest that Stereophile run a follow-up article assessing the merits -- sonic & logistic -- of replacing a transport based digital front end w/ a hard disk based audio server connected via Wi-Fi to an external DAC.

Can bookshelf speaker be used on their own?
I'm considering putting together a budget system based on a wireless music streaming device such as a Apple Airport Express or Slim Devices Squeezebox.
I'm totally ignorant about modern hi-fi systems - my music system for the last 15 years has been a PC and a pair of earbuds! What I would like to know is, is it possible to use a pair of meduim sized bookshelf speakers on their own, or is a sub-woofer or a pair of towers needed?

Where do you buy new vinyl?
Hello,
I posted this question in another forum, but I'll post it here as well.
I need some help in finding a place online that specializes in selling new vinyl. Are there any places out there that have a great selection of new LPs?
Thanks,
Josh

budget iPod basic hi-fi solution
I am trying to set up a basic hi-fi system with the following objectives:
- source iPod
- no need for the full home theater package that seems to be the standard on the market now...
- I would love small speakers but power as I have a large room (equivalent to 2x100W output in the old fashioned way)
- potentially A/B system to put additional speakers in a second room
- cheap !
Any ideas ?

Distortion in the Ear
I have been doing some reading (for example at http://deposit.ddb.de/cgi-bin/dokserv?idn=972885544&dok_var=d1&dok_ext=pdf&filename=972885544.pdf) that indicates the nonlinear distortion products generated within the ear have been recorded for analysis. This would seem to imply that the ultimate limits to audio fidelity occur within the ear itself.
