HI Guys, Some time ago I had asked what and how was the best way for streaming high res music to my 2 channel system which consists of a 4000t, 2 -m500tmkll’s (Dennis miller) Onkyo 7030 ( Kevin tube buffer) and my new Polk lsim 707’s , and I love these new speaker’s. I found the the Polk Omni P1 is the best system out there for streaming not only high res files from Tital, you can stream your own music library, pandora, Spotify, etc.. As far as I have found, and have tried many different system without any luck for streaming high res files. So far, for me , there is no comparison when using the Polk Omni P1 for streaming. If anyone has anything else, I would love to give it try. I purchased the Polk Omni P1 system on ebay for apx. $ 200.00, but they retail for $299.00 I’ll follow up with more spec’s and info if anyone is interested, just let me know. David

Thanks again Dom for straightening me out again, I'm brave, but not that stupid yet to attempt either of the first two options. So I'll stick to the "easier" option 3, and run an amp to each speaker, or just one amp for both speakers with testing the Sona's Faber. I'll be more careful with my vocabulary in the future. Though well deserved, I felt like I was taken out to the tool shed for a little straightening out!! But, with all the time and Patience you spend with me on the phone explaining an helping me out learning about the audio world, you're keeping on my toes and I truly appreciate it. And Thank's for the great illustrated examples when showing the difference between the two, mixer and the dbx-360 venue, Great explanations..

Balancing Bi -amping.. I have a pair of Sona’s Faber Grand Piano home Speakers that have only they a single ( Right / Left )speaker input. I Sold my brother my Energy Veritas v1.8 , and kinda of worked this into the deal. One of the tweeter were blown, and I’ve replacing the tweeter with one that at this point is our best starting point. I don;t want to change my system when I compare them with the Snells, or testing them out, and would like to know the right way to Balance the speakers right now without a dbx-360 venue, etc.. But, I would like to run them by bi -amping my two m500t’s mkll’s (Dennis Miller). It was brought up in one of my last threads about “Balancing “ the two or three amps , so as all the amps and speakers are in sync . With the Sona’s, which has the single right/left speaker input, which system would be best in powering them with two amps. 1) Run both Rights inputs with one amp, and run the other amps for both lefts on the Sona’s. 2) Power one speaker with one amp, the 2nd amp powering the other speaker. Righ now , I am bi - amping my snell’s ,type D’s with one amp running the high’s and the other amp running the Low’s. I realize that each speaker system might work best one way with the Sona’s Faber, and the Snell’s May be better the other way. Right now I don’t have a mixer like the DBX- 360 venue, But it’s been suggested that it could be the next step for me inregards to my 2 channel system in helping with the balancing of everything together. But without the mixer, or even with one, Is there a system with the two amps that works best when bi- amping speakers as I mentioned above, or that for lack of my knowledge, or there’s a different and better way for it to be done not mentioned so far as to use Bi-amping with either speaker system, and to have everything balanced . The dbx-360 would be my next big “ Homework assignment and understanding “ how all these things come together for the music sound I am loving and learning . Thanks again
