| Accuphase E-560 versus VAC Sigma 160i Hello again all,Just wanted to update my situation. I ended up buying the Rowland Continuum S2 and so far, I couldn't be happier! It seems like a very synergistic match with my Salk Soundscape 8's speakers. With RAAL tweeters mated with an Accuton... | |

| Octave Audio integrated amplifiers Thanks for the thoughtful response.I typically don't listen at very loud levels (75 to 85 db) and so I'm wondering about the V40 SE and V70 SÉ's performance under these conditions. | |
