| Good Speakers for Rock and Roll Under 15K I asked this same question 4 years ago for a match with my McIntosh MA8900. I went with the JBL L100 Classics and have been very happy with them. I originally thought of adding subs to my system, but honestly, unless you want thumping fake bass, y... | |
| SACD is VERY confusing I use my Oppo to rip the SACD layer onto my server. Works fantastic. | |

| Thank you millercarbon Nuts. | |
| Aren't you sorry you missed out on this one? It's already sold out! LOL I'm going to hold out for the Gibson. | |
| why do so many discussions turn contentious? Much of this discourse thrives on the passive aggressive nature as well as anonymity. Social Media........Post things you would never say face to face. | |
| Power cord supplied with Luxman L-509X Integrated Amp The sound of an electronic component starts with the power transformer, diode bridge and filter caps. NOT with the wire from the wall AC outlet! Fancy expensive power cords are just jewelry to impress the unenlightened! Let the stone throwing begi... | |
| Speaker Cables? why all the hype for expensive speaker wire? Don't waste money. Get decent quality cables and play your tunes. Blue Jeans Cable is economical and very good quality for us mere mortals. | |
