I've seen the audio landscape through Club Polk members. And, I've learned what I can afford and targeted some of the best-buy new and used equipment.

Like Polk speakers, this forum serves a range...

I considered Apple TV but bought a WD TV Live Hub with 1 TB of storage. I am burning all CDs into 16/44.1 AIFF format and shifting them to the WD Hub. Most of my CDS are in 16/44.1 format and I...

The WD TV Hub says it has:

SPDIF digital output

The optical audio output sends digital signals to your AV receiver for the best surround sound experience.

Am I missing something?

Western Digital just released a 1 TB TV Hub with web options at $200. I'm thinking about matching it up with a Musical Fidelity V-DAC. The V-DAC has two digital inputs, allowing for a DVD or Blu-Ray...

Half time and the Jets defense looks pretty nasty.

As a native M******* in upstate New York, I am somewhat concerned. Good thing the Jets offense is not good. Nonetheless, T.B. and the boys will...

The Patriots are 1-0 and have a very good offense and a champion, Hall of Fame QB. The Jets are coming off a strong preseason TV show and are led by a young, largely unproven QB and a loud (and often...

In college, I saw two bottles of Sam Adams Cherry Wheat sit in a beer fridge for five months. Even when desperate, no one drank them.

I too choked down warm Koch's Golden Anniversary in my younger...

Let's say I planned to buy a DAC like the Musical Fidelity V-DAC and pair it with a blu-ray player for two channel CD listening.

The goal here would be to avoid redundancy: If a blu ray player is...

[Referee holds arms straight up.]

Interested. Standing third in line.

Nice setup. Real nice.

The footage also shows how LPs can look like art in motion, in addition to sounding better.

As a home entertainment device, the setup in the above footage would be more...

Thanks for the tip on the Classic Records Zep reissues. I looked around and saw some $150-plus prices for single reissued albums. Maybe they sell at that price, but that's way too much cash for an...

Great photos. Thanks.

If you enjoy Zeppelin, give us a review of "All of My Love" from In Through the Out Door (or CD boxed set) on your sound system?

Thanks. I've also recently been looking into "tube buffers," based on a post made on this board. I've still got much to learn about the buffers though.

On a side note, I'm still playing LPs with...

I'm using a low-end Marantz DV4001 for CD playback and my turntable is just dominating.

I want my CDs (not SACDs) to sound warmer and fuller like the LPs. But, is that quest pointless?

I'm...

Many thought Pearl Jam's No Code in the mid-1990s was mostly bad. I thought it was mostly great. I still like it and the album art is just sweet.

I respectfully ask that the Polk marketing team make a quick note of the statements below before deciding on the future of this forum:

If Club Polk goes dark, I'd be much, much less likely to...

I am in a similar dilemma with a Marantz amp and Polk M70s. Right now, I am using a Marantz DV4001 for CD and DVD playback.

To optimize your CD needs (70 percent of use), you could buy a NAD CD...

This thread served as a starting point for a 50-inch Viera purchase. I sold a 50-inch DLP for $450 on the List and ordered the Viera from NewEgg for $720. And, that TV purchase was partly inspired by...

This thread led me to the Monitor 70s at NewEgg. Thanks. I bought them and hooked them up today.

I have the PSW10. It was a gift from a friend. The 70s do not seem to need the PSW10, though the...

Sold

Price drop to $80. Still an Albany, N.Y. pickup. Thanks.

These were purchased from Frys.com in April 2008 at $120 plus shipping, which made the price $160. They are in very good condition save for a small scratch on top of one speaker.

They come with...

I too have a GA 312. I corresponded with a customer service agent from the Needle Doctor who reccomended the Super OM10. I bought it and the turntable sounds very good with that cartridge.

I...

Thanks for the advice.

I do hope to move up from R50s some day. I agree that the LS50s are better.

But, the Craigslist seller seems dialed into $175 and no lower. Just seems like if I'm gonna...
