Best monoblock amps for $2000 used
What is the difference between two mono block amps and one dual-mono stereo amp? Many times you can get the dual-mono stereo amp or even an integrated dual mono stereo amp for a better price.http://www.musicalfidelity.com/products/m6series/m6500i ...

When Money Is No Object -- You Buy Bose?
I had the 901’s back in the mid 80s. There were very innovative for the time, although the speakers I have today are much better indeed. While I agree with the idea “ Bose success was very much because of marketing success” in all fairness Omar Bo...

How to start streaming
You say you have “ a large collection of such files on my PC and external hard drives which I have converted to CD”. I guess I confused as to what that means?jond is correct, you need a device that can stream. There are dedicated streamers by many... 
I Find Primalunas Ugly. How about You? Is there an alternative?
One factor in buying an amplifier, besides the aesthetics, is the customer service and warranty. Beauty is often very subjective but quality service not so much. I had a failure of a transformer on my LM Audio 216ia after around 3 years. The deale... 
Does anyone use hearing aids when listening to your hi-fi audio system?
Thanks for the response and tips. Interesting notion thinking of your hearing aid as part of your hi-fi (lloydc). Another thing, I did spend much of my time on the firing range, and back in the 80’s not too much hearing protection was provided or ...

Picking an amplifier
Almost all Diana Krall’s recordings are done well. I think the best album is one she did with her husband Elvis Costello (The Girl in the Other Room) Rumors are flying they are splitting up, hope not. 
I Find Primalunas Ugly. How about You? Is there an alternative?
I think there are many tube amps out there. It really depends on your budget. Also I respect your opinion on LM Audio but you are the first person I have heard who has stated they sound terrible. I have the 216ia and it sounds better than Rogue or...
