How much does your system retail for?
More than I would ever tell my wife. 
Opinions on Full-Range/single driver speakers
I will also chime in here defending JohnK's knowledge about speakers. I comissioned John to build me a pair of large monitor speakers using a Seas Exotic driver and a Raal ribbon tweeter. Not only is the speaker cabinet as solid as a rock but I ha... 
Most musical integrated amp you have heard?
BAT 300 integrated, I owned about 5 years ago. Very musical and well build. I should have kept it. 
Need preamp recommendation
I have a newer CJ pre-amp and it is dead quite. A CT-6 or CT-5 are both quite nice. 
Help choosing a Conrad Johnson preamp
Phaelon,I did not say best of the line but I feel best buy or best value. The 16LS2 is to my ears is a better preamp but at used prices I feel the CT6 is a better value. The CT 6 never got alot of press but quite a good preamp. I have listened to ...

Review: Tube Research Labs M-225 mono blocks Amplifier
Thanks for your reply. It is always a balancing act with our systems especially when we make changes. 
Review: Tube Research Labs M-225 mono blocks Amplifier
Tvad,There is a very simple answer, I need to sell the TRL's because I want to pay off my credit card bill with the new high efficent speakers I bought for the Air Tight. You seem to be interested why not buy them yourself!

High power amp reccomendations, airy highs a must
I have just listed my TRL mono blocks. 300 watts into 8 ohms and about double into 4 ohms. Take a look at the listing and read the various audiogon reviews. Solid State and sounds like exactly what you are looking for. 
Electrocompaniet EMC 1-UP pre-amp
I owned the EMC-1UP for about 3 years. Like the above post it is an outstanding sounding CDP. It was also built like a tank. Highly recommended. 
Help with final choice of efficient speakers
Check out KCS speakers. Talk to John and tell him what you are looking for. He can also build a custom design for your needs. 
New Rowland Criterion 2-chassis battery pre
Guido,I don't expect you to remember me but we talk on the phone about a year ago . Our discussion was about Rowland equipment and where I live in Oregon. I have been following this thread from day one and that new preamp must be something else. G...
