| Amplifier considerations, PrmaLuna EVO 400 versus ARC Reference 160 S. Is ARC worth it? Re: Primaluna Monobloc. I have an EVO 400 power amp which I have been running for about 6 months now and am considering adding another to monobloc. (The preamp is also an EVO400.)

| The Snob Appeal Premium Wilson's just look "all business" to me. To each their own. | |

| Recommendation for sub with high level inputs My REL S-812’s got a sonic upgrade when I attached DIY "grounding boxes" to their RCA plugs. | |
