| Anything SS sounds better than D'Agostino ? @bpoletti I just picked up a pair of M1s and am really enjoying them. Nice to see another owner. I couldn't find much information about them when I bought them and threw the dice based on Keith's reputation. I've heard the Momentum M300 monoblo... | |

And yes a decent quality integrated will sound much better than the "pure direct" on your AVR.The amp and preamp both matter, but the preamp has more to do wit... | |

And yes I’ve replaced the nodes power cord and I have a hardwired E... | |
