My Room In The HouseSsglx, hope you don't mind me stepping in on your system thread but I have also owned both the Sat5s as well as the 5.0s. I agree the Sat5s aren't in the same league as the 5.0s; not even close. Wh... posted over 13 years ago | View comment | |

Forever Done, Never DoneThat's an excellent review. You really should post it in the Audiogon review category for maximum exposure. I think there would be a lot of interest in this. posted over 13 years ago | View comment | |

Forever Done, Never DoneI'd be curious to hear your opinion of the Arcam with HDCD encoded cds. Assuming DVD-88 decodes HDCD. posted over 13 years ago | View comment | |
