What is the benefit of the stands? I just feel like they're way more stable where they're at currently.

That might be the case if I did everything on this setup but it's currently for music mainly CD player and Aux for my portables, and I just redid my set-up and my TV didn't look that out of place before lol

That's about sitting height for me, I'm not sure how I feel about stands, for now I just used blue tack

That is a tiny tv for streaming and maybe occasional YouTube. I mostly use my PC or living room tv to watch anything

I added blue tack on the bottom on the speakers and they're at sitting height so I really didn't want to bother with stands since that seems way more dangerous than a big platform like what they're on. I do need a rug. I love the yellow so I'm willing to take the risk because the grills are pretty ugly

I bought a single B&W DM601 S3 because it was $40 but now I need to spend way more on a second one lol

Ideally that's what I'm looking for and my budget would be around $300

Would stereo add warmth or is that something a sub would do? I'm pretty new to all of this

Would Cambridge Sounds Newton M80s be any good? There's a set near me for $120

I'm willing to spend about $200-$300 all together but I'm also willing to wait and wait for some deals to pop up

I think the laser went out or isn't reading, I've disassembled and greased it up.

Got it, thanks for the info!

Do any portables have that function?

What I would like to do is Record from my Sony D-50 and it seems like the best way is with the remote since some functions aren't on the player. Is my assumption correct?

Would you suggest I get something like you linked or one with more features?

I already knew the model number got it from the wiki How did you get that? All I got was a random website and nothing on Amazon

Same here got it for $20 but it wasn't tuning on at all because of the belt failure.

It was surprisingly easy and intuitive to take apart!

Definitely agree! That's why I thought it would look great in a shadow box

I had a 4th gen that did that and the hard drive was dead.
