Default Fatman Itube Carbon Edition2/Martin Logans

Sup guys! Havent been on here in a while, but I am slowly researching options on hooking up my bedroom with a small little setup.

Anyone here have an Itube by Fatman? Heres my plan...a 32" lcd or plasma screen on my low sitting dresser, coupled with the Fatman Itube and Martin Logan Motion4 bookshelf speakers.

I believe I can then use my iphone (obviously), as well as hook my cable box into the itube for 2channel audio through my speakers. I can also hook up a dvd or bluray to it as well since it has 2 outs.

My question to you guys is, first does anyone have any good things to say about the itube? I love how simple it is, produces 25w x2 of power and would compliment my bedroom nicely without having too much equipment.

Do you guys think this is a good setup? also, what do you guys consider to be one of the better 32" screens out today? I was looking at Panasonic but any models u guys have in mind? Also, anyone try those Martin Logans out?

thanks as always!

I've briefly heard the iTube and the Motion 4s (although not together), and both seem to be pretty good for the money. Make sure all your songs on your iPhone are stored using lossless compression (i.e., do NOT use MP3).

Down the road, you might want to consider bypassing the iPhone's crappy DAC using something like the Wadia 170 iTransport and an extrenal DAC. Yoiu'll get MUCH better sound quality.
