| Pre Amp recommendation Go seperates by using a Passive pre with a Tape Loop like an FT Audio or Creek .I would never buy a Reciever.Also get a Phono Amp.Add a SS Processor like a Lexicon and your done.It will keep the 2 ch. seperated.Good luck! | |
| First System Amp . . . LeAmpII's are just coming online!I really look forward to hearing these babies.Everyhting is positive as far as the build and components used.If they fail in the Mids\Highs to please me I will use them for th Bass in a vertical amping situation.I ... | |
| I recently emailed John Atkinson of Stereophile You have to realise that these mags and reviewers are out to promote new equiptment.If it was the case that mothing old was good my system would be toast.I asked a reveiwer about Axiom speakers contending with NEARs and my statement was come on th... | |

| Very Cheap Cable and PC Lifters I use Pencils and rubberbands for lifts.Theres plenty of DIY info on them around BB's.Try this stuff which is used in Auto systems.It can be found in Walmart also in the automotive section or Auto Install places.Their IC's are even better and I ha... | |

| Suggestions for interconnects and speaker cables. Read reviews of the equiptment you own to see.That is good equiptment and speakers and good cable synergy is a must.Good luck! | |
| What ICs to connect pre to power amp? Bogden or the new Eichmanns are worth looking into!I do not like Kimber for some reason.AQ or Tara Labs I like. | |
| ++++StereoPhile Class A components+++++ All I can say is that I do not agree with the S-Phile in many ways.I think they show favoritism to some and then are not fair with others,Kind of like mood swings.I have seen them almost or did distroy the company that made my speakers with out du... | |
| Best CD player under $500 used? I would get a CAL Delta Transport and either a Scott Nixon DAC or a Moddified ART DIO DAC!Might cost alittle more ,but it will also give the performance of a $3000+ machine. | |
