Can someone help me choosing a pair of speakers mainly for music. I'd like to have a 2.0 system and contemplating 683's. The amplifier will be Denon 1712. (a) Does this make any sense? (cheap AVR and "hifi" speakers) (b) Would I be...

I have the weirdest problem of them all. 1312's remote won't cooperate. It was working fine for the fist 6 mo or so. Then half of the buttons won't have any effect on the unit. Then it was working fine. Then it stopped working. Then I...

Hello: There is an extensive thread on the xx12 model, but I doubt I will be able to find an answer for my question, so please bear with me. I have 1312 and two speakers (Polk Audio Monitor 50 Series II). I don't need or want or can...
Another option to consider is active speakers (they already have a built-in stereo amp) and a cheap DAC (optional). Speakers to look at Audioengine A2/A5+, Airmotiv 4, 5, 6 ($200+ per pair) DACs to consider: Audioengine D1, Dragonfly,...
I've been wondering which DAC would be "better": a standalone cheap DAC or a DAC within a cheap AVR? I've got a Denon 1312 and thinking about Audioengine D1. The D1 is $170, while the Denon was around $150 (or even less). Yes, I...
Ok, thank you very much. My initial concern was A2's won't make much of a difference. I was wrong, the JVC FS-5000 speakers sounds like built-ins when comparing side-by-side with A2's. Huge difference. When in the Magnolia room I had a...
Hello everyone: I would like to use my newly acquired retina Mac to listen to music, MP3 as well as iTunes radio stations. No CDs or movies. I really like the quality of built-in speakers, but they are a far cry from "good". So, I...
