I'm know it does too, I know how your speakers are, and we both know I know about the 5008.

Just for kicks, have you thought about adding height or trying it out? I have not a clue when I will get around to it, I'm pretty much all caught up in my mountain bike riding. At this point, I'm glad my setup is pretty much in order, where I can just come home and enjoy whenever the wife and I want to watch a movie.

ics can make a huge difference , just changing from basic to descent made a big difference for me, and the ones you guys are talking about are in another level .

yeah, Id like to get a 50-55 inch tv one day.... the new theater near us sounds phenominal, the older one sounds like poo.....naturally I dont go there anymore..

I picked up the Transparent premium series Super XLR's IC and there amazing cables Callas . I cant stress enough how good they sound, best I can say is demo some and I think you will be amazed to especially if you can do a A&B comparison.

ive thought about it but ive found matrixing the signal just sounds a bit off i like to play each source as intended . if a movie is 5.1 that's how i play it the only time i use 7.1 is if its recorded that way .

55 :p, 50 you're gonna want a new one in a month, I find my 55 small already :o

Panny 55UT50

yeah, Im kinda thinking getting the digi coax and ICs for the DAC here soon, getting speaker cables a little later, then add a shunyata venom power cable to the integra. then get a power conditioner next year sometime. Ill use the AQ sidewinders for the Integras pre-outs to the Naim, then keep the smaller ICs from the phono stage to the Naim.

I have heard Transparent and Shunyata power cables of every price, the most expensive speaker cables were like $5000/pr or something like that.... NOT CHEAP. Ive also heard the $350 ones, and several in between.

im still happy with 40....

I think the ones I picked up retail for a little or 700 although not what I payed even if I payed 700 there worth every penny and would do it again and my only complaint is I cant afford to use them for every channel at this time.

Oh as long as you only have a 40 it's fine, the day you put a 55 in your living space there is no going back to 40, You I went trough this already :D.



You can get the 3D 50UT50 for $900

that panny is kinda what I was thinking of .

Perfect size without breaking the bank and with 3D capabilities, not that it matters to me but anyhow they will all have 3D one day.

yeah, the transparents are very good. I have not heard the Nordost, but I would think theyre both equally as good. Those would be my 2 choices. Just depends on the deals.

yeah, 3d will be nice to have, but I wont use it as much as some might.

watching dark knight for the first time since I got the Naim, and WOW, the punch in the bass is very powerful. I noticed the sub wasnt on after a few scenes, but the wife never did, that whole opening sequence in the parking structure was amazing, and the sub wasnt even playing...

You need a real sub if you can't tell the difference if it's on or off.:p:D

Yes for sure a sweet deal is always a incentive .

or just speakers that do enough on their own.... you cant tell. :p

a better sub would be great tho.

You never know, a good deal could just fall into your lap one of these days.;)

you want to trade? Tell your wife its a smaller sub.... :whip:

watched The Dark Knight in preperation to go see the new Dark Knight Rises, it was the first time I have seen this movie since adding my Naim Nait 5i-2, I was surprised by how much added slam was available in this movie. Shotgun blasts in the opening scenes, when Batman jumps on that van in the parking garage and smashes the roof..... incredible.

that movie is full of great sound effects, the van scene is one of my favorites:rock:

jamming to some AC/DC black ice.

I used that movie to sell my Rainmaker center :D amazing movie indeed, I have to go watch DKR now.

Jamming Eva Cassidy, not exactly the same style but i guess i could Jam Back in Black after, I have Black Ice but just thought I'd go for Back in Black and Hells Bells :D

I love my back in black import lp. We went to Disneyland tonight rode only a few rides but 2 of them I'd never been on and are brand new.

How do you like Eva cassidy?

Good evening buddy.

you and mickey mouse must be very close by now:D hope you guys had fun.

switched to sting now nothing like the sun some good horns in this one.

X2 In Vinyl I have Black Ice, Back in Black and Hells Bells and one of them is a import but its been warped a little since day one :eek: Disneyland rocks !! What were the new rides ?

hows everything going today ? well i hope .

The 3 new rides are in cars land, we went on luigis flying tires and mater jamboree. We went on radiator springs racers last time

You'd think so by now.... Haha.

i love the horns in the song sister moon!

She was a great artist and still is even if she has past away over 15 years ago, her interpretation of Over the Rainbow is really nice. :cool:

Fields of gold is awesome too, my wife loves that song

I listen to the enire Simply Eva CD, thinking of buying some more now :) Oh and I really enjoyed her interpretation of True Colors :thumbsup:

have you guys ever listened to zeppelin live at the bbc sessions ? just put it on, you shook me sounds awesome:rock:

Cool man sounds like fun !
