| ZU OMEN speakers 12ohms?? You cannot hurt the speakers by experimenting with the different taps. Just find the one that suites your taste. | |
| Krell KSA100 doesn't stop upon shut down? Nothing to worry about, quite normal. Even though you've powered off the unit, the unit still has power stored inside and all you are hearing in the discharge. | |
| Your opinions about Acapella Harlekin MK II Due to their origin of manufacture, they are very expensive speakers in NA. Unless you are getting a killer deal, there would be more than likely a lot of speakers to choose from. I have only heard the Harlekin (not sure of the version) once, and ... | |

| Hovland HP-100 Users If you like the Wyetech Opal wait until you hear the new Wyetech Ruby. I have a few audio friends in Ottawa who are beta testers or something like that who tell me that the Ruby is awesome. | |
| Best 845 tube out there? Amfibus, the 845 referenced in your Sophia link is a rebranded TJ Full Music 845 MKII Carbon Plate. This tube will not work in your Cary 2111AE as it requires a much lower filament current (0.6A vs. 3.25A) than what your amp is spec'd for. | |
| One of my speakers sounds louder then the other. Okay, the obvious.......did you check the balance control? | |
