    that's not mine. I listen to music not my system. A system is simply a means to an end. But, I do like my music to sound good. I for one an very happy with my system.

    Question: Have you ever replaced a component in your system for a better built or sounding one?

    I changed my speakers from Diva to Rockets.
    I went from a JVC DVD player to a Panisonic CP72 to get DVD-Audio.
    I went from an older Yamaha to the RX-V2400 to get DPLII, NEO 6 etc. and YPAO.
    I went from a Klipsch KSW-12 to an SVS 20-39 PCi.

    These changes came as a result of a limited budget and research on the forums. All the changes I made were well worth the costs. Like you I listen to the music and not the system, however these changes have made the music/movies sound better to me. They allowed me to enjoy different formats on the processing side. The speakers and the sub changes allowed for better reproduction of the processing. I'm very happy with my system now and it will remain the way it is until/if I decide I want to make changes for enhanced 2 channel with the Perpetual Technologies gear. I only really started giving audio products much thought a few years ago, but I have enjoyed music my whole life.
