    Or what if Cordy is just doing what she saw that she was really supposed to do in her vision.

    Sony ES via mail/online?

    Sony is one of those companies that will honor mail order purchases. Even though they say that there are 'official' authorized ES dealers, they will honor the warranty as long as you have a receipt. Give www.oade.com a call. They usually have good prices and have a good mail order reputation also.

    Sopranos Season 4 Review and Discussion Thread Shows 1-12

    I missed it Sunday and just watched it tonight. In the meeting that T has with Johnny Sack, I took it to mean that Johnny was hinting that if he (Johnny) whacked Carmine, he'd like to work for T. Because Johnny says to T 'Give me a call' right after he hints about maybe something happening to...

    list of 2 channel preamps with a "processor loop" or "unity gain" feature

    This is slightly off the subject, but it may be of use to some in this thread with a similar amp. I am probably going to add a tube stereo preamp to my current HT system later on. I was going to get one with the HT passthru, but I don't want to be using up tube life when I watch TV or movies...

    Direct firing or dipole/bipole for surrounds

    I use the wall mounted Magnepan MGMC1s for my surrounds. I can have them set up to point at me like direct firing speakers, or swing them alittle and they go into dipole mode. At first, I had them facing me in direct-firing mode. I did this because a lot of people said that you have to for 5.1...

    If its too good to be true then it probably is

    Andrew_Ballew is right in that the 'rotten apples' do probably cost the legitimate sellers sales. I am hesitant to bid on items unless they take credit cards or have feedback well into the 100's. And so I pass on a lot of items that I may be interested in because I won't risk getting scammed. I...

    If its too good to be true then it probably is

    I bid on a McCormack preamp before which listed for ~$1700. I quit bidding in the last 5 min since the winning bid was only at ~$900 and I got a funny feeling. A couple days later, I checked the sellers feedback and a bunch of negative feedback piled in too. So you gotta be careful about people...

    Is the DA5ES a noticable upgrade from the DB840?

    Actually the DA3ES can be had for a little less than $570. I just picked up the DA3ES from Oade for $525+$25 shipping to Illinois, so shipping should be the same for you in Indiana. So now your price diff is only $150. And for $150, I would do the upgrade. I think the ES has better DACs...

    Anyone ever hear of Magnepans?

    I demoed Martin-Logans Aeriusi a while back and then went with the Magnepans. The ML hybrid bass never sounded right to me. I think that most Maggie owners would consider upgading to the MG20.1s not the ML line. I'm also starting to turn the 2channel system into a HT system also. I just...
