Anticipated solo vehicle for the Marvel superheroine co-stars David Harbour, Rachel Weisz, O-T Fagbenie. 134 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English. Two-disc set.

For years I believed that I had no use for a subwoofer,
until I came across some articles that explained how
it significantly enhanced classical music. So I purchased
this Sony subwoofer when it was on sale, to try it out.
It turned out to be true - and brought out things I had not
heard before in the music! It made the listening
experience more pleasurable, and I am glad I made the
purchase.

Can I stack my Yamaha receiver on top of the CD player? The CD player is a bit too wide to use side by side.

Top 100 Contributor
Best Answer

I would say it is ok to put your receiver on top of the cd player, but would recommend against putting the receiver under it. Receivers can generate a fair amount of heat, and you generally want to have good airflow on the top and sides of the receiver.
