    Looking to Upgrade Boston Acoustics A150

    Hey all, I wouldn't call myself an audiophile, but I sure do like good sound when I can get it. My dad gave me his old Boston Acoustic A150s when I graduated university, and they have been serving well for a number of years now. I've also got and Onkyo TX-NR636 reciever, and have tv, etc...

    Do I need to upgrade my receiver for my new speakers?

    Hey Everybody, Just purchased some JBL Synthesis Array 1000's to take the place of my JBL L166 Horizons, I've noticed there's not a whole lot of info on them, mainly the 1400's but nevertheless. One thing that seems to be apparent is that they will be more revealing than the l166's. So I am...

    Is the X701 an upgrade from AU-G77X?

    Hello everybody, This is my first post after hours of reading many topics about my favourite amplifier brand Sansui. But now the time has come to ask for your help. I am the proud owner of a AU-G77X which I recapped and serviced myself. I am pretty much content with it, but I can get a hold of...

    upgrade amp for Sopra 2's

    I just acquired a pair of Focal Sopra 2's. Awesome speakers. I'm currently using a new Rotel 1590MKII preamp and an Anthem MCA power amp. I'm looking for advice on upgrading the amp. Since I just got the preamp, I really don't want to replace it. I've been looking at the mac 312 and Parasound...

    Stairway to (Audio) Heaven

    So I just recently graduated college and I've been scraping by on whatever bargains and deals I can find for my audio equipment, but now I have a real job and I'm looking to start taking things to the next level. Problem is, there's too damn much audio equipment to sort through everyday (well...

    New speakers. Any suggestions?

    I have a harman kardon avr 1600 and Sansui sp200's and am thinking on new speakers for the avr. I love my Sansui's but they are VERY old and I don't want to kill them with modern bass(they can't go very low) Any suggestions on speakers (loud/bookshelf) under or near $200?

    Sennheiser HD-424s Component Upgrades V2

    I'm cross posting this from the Headphones forum, where it's had 1 response. I'm hoping someone can help me with these questions... I finally got my HD-424s. I think they must be relatively unused, as they've had quite a burn in period - going on about 40 hrs at this point, and they keep...

    Sennheiser HD-424s Component Upgrades

    I finally got my HD-424s. I think they must be relatively unused, as they've had quite a burn in period - going on about 40 hrs at this point, and they keep getting better. The bass is becoming much more responsive and showing signs of actually getting somewhere close to the 16Hz advertised. (I...
