| Need Help Matching to This System To Speakers I’ll second the motion for Monitor Audio Gold 100’s, I’ve got them and love them, but they are designed with a small room in mind, yours might be too big. It helps too that they are beautiful. | |
| PANGEA AUDIO AC 14SE MKII SIGNATURE POWER CABLE OR WHAT? alt4love - +1 on Morrow Audio, I have their mid priced power cable for my NAD integrated and their top of the line (of 2 types last I looked!) speaker cables in a bi-wire configuration.

For Free. The wife’s got a great job! | |
| Dumping it all for Lyngdorf??? NAD M33. | |
| The problem with streaming Pop-hiss-pop-hiss, yup better sound quality with vinyl….not. | |
