| Wilson Alexandria V2 Thanks for the clarification, Dgad. Blowing resistors due to overdriving is a very small consideration for most people, I think, unless the speakers don't perform well at low and moderate volumes. The much larger considerations are the sound and d... | |
| Wilson Alexandria V2 Scousepasty, it's interesting that you mention the last part. A couple of years ago Sound Lab demonstrated a pair of 5-wide arrays of ProStat 922s, each array set up in a continuous arc at each side of the stage in the 21,000 seat LDS Conference C... | |
| Solid State Amps for Quad ESL 57? I got reasonably good results with a Bedini 25/25 but would probably use tube amplification today. | |

| Kuzma Stabi Ref/Stogi Ref vs TW Acustic Raven One As a dealer I have the Stogi Reference and 4POINT tonearms here, as well as the Feickert turntable which can also be fitted with those arms. The Stogi Reference is an outstanding arm, but the 4POINT in a different league altogether. Breathtaking. | |

| Most agreed upon best speaker? Tvad: I got it too but wasn't drunk. Disorderly crossovers? Sorry, Pedrillo, but you should have expected this :) | |
| Has anyone used Parasound JC1 with Dali Megaline s Yes, one of my clients uses two pairs of JC 1s with his Megalines to good effect. | |
| SME 30 / 12 pre-release details. The new Series V-12 arm will not be available with a detachable headshell as this role is taken by the 312S tonearm.They could learn from others who know to run the headshell leads out of the arm to the cartridge and which run continuous to the en... | |

| Big Karan amps It is worth mentioning that Karan distributor Avatar Acoustics, located in the Atlanta, Georgia area, has exhibited the products at CES and RMAF numerous times. | |
| DCS Puccini and/or Soulution 740 players? Anyone?? Yssl (Yujean Kang, Tangram Audio), these forums are not for unsolicited promotion of product lines one distributes or sells. Sorry to play net cop and nothing personal, but someone would say something eventually...usually done by Audiofeil, the re... | |
