    Any way to Bridge an amp not specifically designed for bridging??

    I have a Marantz MM9000 5-channel amp. I was thinking about bridging 4 of the 5 channels. This amp wasn't specifically setup for bridging but I was wondering if there is any way to DIY. Thanks in advance.

    What are you using to store your mp3s?

    My laptop hard drive is filled to its capacity. I wanted to get a new, dedicated external drive for storing my mp3s. That way when I upgrade my laptop (in a year or 2), I can just plug it in to the dedicated hard drive. Does anyone have any suggestions for

    AMPS: Carver 705x vs. Marantz MM-9000?

    For ripping: EAC vs. CDex. Any thoughts?

    It seems that the forum consensus is that EAC is the best software for ripping; there are some proponents for CDex as well. For the life of me, the newest version of EAC (version 0.9prebeta11) will not work for me despite following the suggestions of r3mix.net as well as the linked tutorial on...

    JBL vs. PSB

    I'm sorry if this subject has been covered previously in HT Forum; the search function has been down the last several times I have tried. I am in the market for an inexpensive set of the front 3 speakers for my HT. I was looking at the JBL S-center (center) and S38/S310 (fronts) but I have...
