| Tune of the Day John Hiatt, "Take It Down" off Crossing Muddy Waters - new tubes in my DAC making a difference | |
| Luxman vs Accuphase for Harbeth 40.3 XD Not trying to toss a grenade into this thread but I used Chord amps with my Graham, LS5/9 - there was nothing better. Didn't try Luxman or Accuphase (both excellent choices though) and no Pass. Tried Hegel, Electrocompaniet, Audiomat (integrated) ... | |
