    what happened to quality 2 channel systems?

    ok so i think my final decision is the CBM-170SEs paired with the STF-2 all running through the hk3480. the speakers have built in xovers so im not worried about sending a full signal to them. the sub has a vairable xover which i can dial to my choosing. and the hk receiver has gotten good...

    what happened to quality 2 channel systems?

    help me find a receiver/integrated for my planned 2.1 system

    ive been keeping my eyes open on audiogon but it seems like most of the stuff posted on there is way out of my price range. sounds like the hk3480 might be the one to take home. the quality seems to be good, the price is right and it sounds like on my budget im not going to get a receiver...

    what happened to quality 2 channel systems?
