| Whats more important? Speaker or the Amp >>the speaker.....the great designs always sound good with an endless variety of amps<<Totally untrue. Speakers such as Ohm F, Magneplanars, and Apogee (all models but Scintilla more so) need very specific amplification to perform well... | |
| effect of tubes in cd players >>I will not go back to a solid state player.<<It's not about tubes or solid state. Design, parts, and build quality are what matter. Don't forget that Meitner, Wadia, and Esoteric are all solid state. | |

| SET Amps and Maggies SET amps are not the "end all" in high end amplifiers. There are other topologies that will provide superb performance with greater compatibility for the Maggies. | |
