All prices are in US dollars.

Although shown at CEDIA 2000 in prototype form, Simaudio's new Moon DVD player will be available in November. The projected retail price is $3000-$3500.

Thiel's SW1 subwoofer has created a bit of a stir even though it is officially unavailable. This cutaway version shows how massive the driver's magnet is and the substantial internal bracing of the cabinet.

There's just something about a stack of Mark Levinson equipment that draws audiophiles' eyes. From top to bottom are the two-box No.40 Media Console (final retail price to be announced), two No.434 125W mono amplifiers ($4195 each), and three No.436 mono amps ($5995 each).

Revel's new B15 powered subwoofer ($2995 projected retail price) sat on static display but had the unmistakable look of its family lineage -- which is to say that it resembles the speakers in the Revel Performa line.

The Infinity Modulus home-theater speaker system ($1699, available later this year) includes four satellites with brackets, a single center-channel speaker, and a 300W powered subwoofer. The TV bracket shown supporting the satellites above is a $149 option that hides the wires very effectively.

Onkyo's TX-DS787 THX Ultra-certified receiver ($1049) had Doug Blackburn lamenting his current reference A/V receiver -- also from Onkyo. This new receiver offers 135Wpc over six channels, 24/96 DACs, and THX Surround EX 7.1 processing.

B&K's AV1260 is a six-zone/12-channel power amp that costs a mere $1698 -- less than $150 per channel.

Not to be outdone, Parasound's Zone Master Z12 amplifier ($2000) offers 50 watts to each of its dozen channels.

Dynaudio's revamped Audience line of speakers won't be available until later in the year, but models were on display at CEDIA nonetheless. From left to right: Audience 62 ($1199 per pair), 72 ($1599 per pair), and 82 ($2399 per pair). In back of the Audience 82 is the Audience 122 ($1499 per pair).

For those who seek simplicity and larger speakers, the Polk Digital Solution-2 ($3999) is an upscale version of the company's RMDS-1 Dolby Digital home-theater system with floorstanding front-channel speakers.
