| Which amp with Wilson watt puppy 8 Your issue is synergy. There are two main challenges with Wilsons. 1. they require very high quality amplification and upstream components including cables 2. they’re very sensitive to room acoustics and placement when the speakers sound tippe... | |
| Chair Thank you all. I have options now. I think the Stressless is about where my budget is capped. | |
| Chair @unclewilbur impressive! Thanks for a detailed overview. | |
| Chair @corelli I agree. Mine currently does. It will be challenging to find something with good lumbar support and the right height. Right angle is also key. | |

| Network Switches @lalitk cool. Thanks! | |
| Adding an extra 1ft to premium speaker cables To appreciate good sound I need to have a degree in electrical engineering? So if I tell you a USDA Prime ribeye steak tastes better to me than a USDA Choice roundeye, both cooked on the same grill by the same chef to the same medium rare internal... | |
| Pulled the trigger on a Moon 861! Hope it pairs well on my Focals No. Had the 330a though. It was transparent but never harsh. I have a lot of doubts about the new moon north being colored and warm in any way. You don’t want this level of amplifier to color and warm things. Expect it to be refined and present a ... | |
| Network Switches @lalitk I have the 22awg Linkup. Is the 26awg better? |
