| Your method for discovering great music. I have found quite a bit of new music (and older music) from Spotify---once a week I see a new list on my Release Radar and Discover Weekly charts. | |

| Integrated Amplifiers - Luxman vs Pass Labs I own a 505uxii and love the simplicity of it. I was looking at a INT-25 or INT 60 but I like the fact that the Luxman integrateds have phono and headphone stages.

| What'd You Get For Xmas? Got myself a REL sub before Christmas. I gave a young friend of mine some vinyl---he just started getting into analog and he's loving it. | |
| Efficient speaker: Zu, Tekton, Volti, Klipsch, Fleetwood? I have the Tekton Lore Reference speakers connected to my vintage system---great speakers and very efficient. I've listened to them with Luxman integrated amps and vintage Denon pre-main amps. Good luck! | |
| Audio Research or Luxman? I believe the 507UXii is being replaced with the 507z with some upgrades. Not sure if/when the 505 or 509 will be updated. |
