Dreadhead, my good frind Mike saw the show in NJ on November 3'rd and loved it.Yeah, I agree fully with Roger waters and the political message but don't like to have one liners streamed in text trying to say how I should feel about something. Thos...

Speaker question for RMAF attendees
Sounds like Raidho but are you sure they were silver? 
Best Pre/Amp or Integrated for Zu Essence
ARC is very transparent and can give you that in the room experience with the right cables, etc. I can't say that I would personally go with an ARC/ZU combination because both have a very extended top end. Maybe too much of a good thing IMO??I fou...

Esoteric MG-10 and MG-20 speakers
I agree with the above comments and can't knock them but be careful if you are weary about too much upper end detail. These speakers will give it to you and if your electronics are not up to it I suspect they will be on the bright side.I've heard ... 
ARC VS60 bias
I think you should carefully check all of your cable connections. You should not hear any buzzing sounds with this amp. Are all interconnects clean and firmly secured?
