Carver 275 Crimson tube amp --- any feedback appreciated
I’d be curious about the Low end (bass) of the 275 when mated with very efficient speakers like my Zu Omen defs. My biggest hesitation on trying avtube amp is lack of bottom end. I really like deep bass 
Which integrated amp for better musicality - Parasound Hint vs Primaluna vs ???
How's the low end (bass) on the PrimaLuna. I have always debated a Tube Amp since I really like deep bass? 
Please...dont flame me (Bose 901-Series I help)
If I recall, the 901's were actually well regarded in the audiophile community back in the day. I believe Bose started to take a beating when they went "lifestyle". I will say, our BOSE wave clock radio (15 years old) sounds great for what it is.  
Anthem 225 vs Yamaha A-S2000
Agree 
Benchmark AHB2 power amp impressions?
Geek101: Thanks for the info. I wonder if make custom rca to XLR cables (ZU will make them) is a better option than using the adaptors that Benchmark sells?I have the Star Quads, which I believe that are similar to the BM speaker cables, and have ...

Hopefully, more reviews become more available.  
Pre amp replacement?? Help
I would say look for a preamp without phono. If you get serious about using your TT, there are plenty of good lower cost phono preamps. Again just my opinion based on your budget.  
Benchmark AHB2 power amp impressions?
Maybe I missed above, has anyone compared sound quality of using the preferred full balanced cable hook vs RCA to XLR cable or adapter?  My Rogue RP 5 pre only offers RCA main outs. Yes, I could purchase the RP- 7 , but that’s quite a bit more cash 
Dear Audiogon,
All I see are USA Tube Audio ads everywhere 
Rogue RP 1 or Super Magnum 99
Stereo5, just curious why you sold the RP-5? 
NuForce STA 200
I've had my STA200 for over a year now and I still love it. I have it pared with a Rogue tube RP5 with a Schiit SYS in between to cut the gain. As I said before, I originally got the amp as an "in between" amp. However, I still am in no hurry to u... 
Anyone tried ZU Option interconnects?
Thanks for feedback. I guess I've never owned a true high end cable so the BJ's have sounded fine to me. I'm thinking of a set of ZU events from my preamp to my amp.  
Benchmark AHB2 power amp impressions?
I always love Dagogo reviews. The reviews are very "real world" without the influence of major manufacturer advertising dollars. Thanks for the advice. I never did agree that great amps are immune from cable swaps. In fact, I would think an uncolo... 
Benchmark AHB2 power amp impressions?
I would probably buy the actual Benchmark speaker cables. I believe on another forum, a couple said they were quite good. 
News: Qobuz Hi-Res platform's debut is scheduled for this October. See Qobuz Links below
I have an overseas QOBUZ account that I use over here. By far the best Hi Rez Service (I have Tidal as well). The classical selection is second to none. With that said, I generally do not expect companies to stick to their launch dates. Heck, reme...
