I am interested in the Outlaw 2150 stereo receiver. It has a line input on the front panel(mini-jack) for an ipod connection. I was wondering if this will be better or worse for connecting the ipod than using a cable that goes from the headphone jack of the ipod to the red/white inputs on the...

I wonder how the MFSl cd's sound? I have seen a bunch on ebay for sale. Any opinions? I saw a Derek and the Dominos- in concert that I was considering buying.

will the Onkyo docking station work with an HK receiver? Also, will I be able to navigate my music selections using my TV screen with this docking station? Thanks!

Wow! Did Scott butcher "Ain't talkin Bout Love " or what!

supposedly the only memeber Of Van Halen that will be on hand will be Michael Anthony. Eddie has gone into or is soon to be going into rehab. David Lee Roth won't be there because he says he is upset that The Hall of Fame will not allow him to perform( I guess he expected to perform with Velvet...

I heard Ed might not even show up for his induction into the HOF. What's up with that?

Hi Guys, I just thought I would check back in with an update. My wife bought me the HK 3480 as a Christmas gift so that's what I will be using for now. I really want a quality pair of floorstanders that I will be happy with for years to come. I mainly listen to rock and R and B. No classical...

Thanks Lance. Yeah, I was afraid that Pioneer amp would not be enough. It seems like a good integrated that will have the power I need will run me at least $600 and up. So I guess I have to decide if I should just save up more money for a good integrated, or go for a receiver with enough power...

Wow! This unit looks pretty nice for $200! I Wonder if it would be enough to power a pair of Paradigm Monitor 11's? I have a pretty large room at 19' by 14' with a vaulted ceiling that starts at 9 ft. and peaks out at 16 ft. The speakers will be near the back wall and that's the wall with the...

Thanks for the input guys. I'm a newbie and starting from scratch so I need a amp/receiver as well. I'm leaning towards a basic receiver like the HK3480(120 watts x2) or the Marantz SR4021(80 watts x2). I do plan on using the speakers to watch movies and a lot of concert dvd's(just bought the...

I know it's all subjective but here goes: Which would you choose for a 2 channel set up: Paradigm Monitor 11 Axiom M60 v2 Polk Rti10 Axiom is mail order only so I can't go listen to them, but I have heard good things about them. Thanks !!

Just wondering if anyone has any opinions on this 5 disc carousel- Marantz CC4300 I saw it on AC4L.com for $129.00 It's not on the Marantz website, so I assume it's discontinued. The 5 disc changer on their website lists for $350 (CC4001) Thanks!

Scott, how much $ does the DVD Audio ripper cost? For some reason , your link is not working for me. I'd like to rip the audio from some of my dvd's into aac format. Thanks, John

Just downloaded I-tunes and am ready to start importing my cd collection. I already have a few hundred songs in mp3 format in windows "My Music" folder. I will be transferring them into I-tunes to be put on my Ipod. Is there any benefit to changing the format of these songs to Apple AAC format...

Ah, thanks Eugene. I feel much better:D

here's why I'm pissed: I finally take the plunge and buy my first ipod a few weeks ago. 60 gig from Circuit City for $399. I bought the 2 year replacement warranty. It seemed like the next week they announce the 60 gig will be discontinued and they now have an 80 gig for $350!! If I knew that...

looks like I found my cable. http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPL...lm=TF367LL%2FA

Thanks for all of your help guys! Here's a link to the boombox I'd like to get. http://www.sonystyle.com/is-bin/inte...ophero-ZSH10CP It has a line in jack. Still trying to come up with the best way to use the ipod at work with this. Maybe I could use Apple's universal docking station? There...

Thanks Patrick! My car car stereo is very generic(Chevy work van). No line in or aux jacks , or a tape deck. I just checked Monster's site and they now have an "icar play wireless 200 fm transmitter" than automatically seeks out the clearest fm station for the best signal while you are driving...

I had a question about hooking up my ipod to a receiver. I know Monster makes cables that go from the ipod mini jack to the red/white jacks in the receiver. I also know that Denon, Onkyo and others sell ipod docking stations that hook right into their receiver. Would the sound quality be better...

Just wondering if those fm transmitters are any good for the car while using an ipod? I am also a house painter and my crew and I like to listen to music all day. We use a pretty good Sony cd boom box and would love to be able to share our tunes via the ipod through the boombox. I don't want to...

Thanks for all of your help guys!! My wife just gave me the 60 gb ipod as a gift. She bought it a few weeks ago, before Apple discontinued it. Just my luck, we finally spring for an Ipod and a few weeks later we could have gotten the new 80 gb for the same price (or less). Oh well, I can't see...

I am new to the whole music downloading thing. I just downloaded Itunes and want to purchase some songs. Will the songs I buy for 99 cents be cd quality? Someone had said they will only be in 128 kbs AAC fomat. Is this true? I am considering purchasing the 60 gb i-pod to use as a "home jukebox"...

These speakers sound pretty nice(the specs, I never auditioned them)! I was set on buying the Paradigm Monitor 11's for my 2 channel system, but now I am thinking twice. Anyone have any thoughts?

So now I have Outlaw as the frontrunner( if I can afford the $600). I'm also considering the Marantz 4021 receiver and the Yamaha rx 797. Both of these run about $450. I heard Rotel has a nice receiver as well, but there are no Rotel dealers near me. The Marantz model say its has "full video...

Thanks a lot everyone! I just checked Outlaw's site and saw their RR2150 receiver that will be out soon. It does look great. I'm assuming that's the one Seth is talking about? It lists for $599. There are 2 magazine reviews on it already. Looks like my budget is going up:)

Thanks Bruce. I will check out that site. I'm guessing 80 to 100 watts per channel is enough for my Monitor 11's??

Hi guys, I am a newbie and just listened to and ordered the Paradigm Monitor 11 speakers for a 2 channel set up. At some point I may add a sub. I'm looking for a receiver for these speakers. I just saw a new Denon model on the Crutchfield web site. It's strange that Crutchfield has a write up...

Thanks Seth! At the Hi-Fi House, I heard the Paradigm PW2200 sub along with the Monitor 9's. The sub sounded great to my ears, although I have not heard any other subs to compare it to:D They wanted $930 for that sub.

Thanks for your opinions guys! I'll have to go listen to the Monitor 7's. If I go with the seven's, then I could put more money into a sub. So I'm thinking a pair of Paradigm 7's and a good sub would sound better than just a pair of Paradigm monitor 9's and no sub? What do you guys think?
