Future of cables!
Very interesting -last night I was with the Luxman representative.  I told him that I recently  finish the old Luxkit 501 amp.  He knew about it, pure class A operation.  I was asking him about what Luxman products today would be in that same soun... 
Calling Vandersteen Treo owners
Just look for a used pair of model 5s or 5As.  They are probably in the same price range anyway. 
Any love for newer Krell amps?
The Krell amps all come down to speaker matching.  I heard Krell power Sonus Fabers and I was floored by the sound.  All Krell system.  The older KSA-50s were excellent amps.  In a recent interview, Dan (no longer with Krell) mentions about them a... 
Amplifiers weight
Just buy the one that is the nicest looking to you.  After all, that is all that really matters.  They all sound the same anyway!Happy Listening. 
MoFi - Are You Kidding Me?
Geez I thought that I cleaned that print off before I repackaged it. 
Anyone have this kind of problem with their amp?
If you are in the NYC area I am in Northern New Jersey and would be happy to take a look at it and I can repair it.  You can also ship the unit if you would like to.Happy Listening.

Which is the most important part of a stereo system?
As a manufacturer of audio components, I was a firm believer of the source because I felt that all tone and sound stage came from there first.  You know garbage in and garbage out.  My partner and I recently built a hybrid 6SN7 power amp - think C...

NYC/NJ Turntable Setup Expert
Just email Fremer he is a decent enough person who may be able to offer assistance. 
Can you tell me why I didn't like the Reference 3a MM's?
Here is the conundrum. Many of us (myself included) believe that source and electronics and cabling are more important than choice of loudspeakers. While Eric builds speakers, I manufacturer DAC, Phono, Preamp and Power Amps.  I do agree with t...
