| The Beatles Revolver @Herman could not have stated it better. All the remixes are superb. | |
| The Beatles Revolver From what I have read, only remix will be issued as a CD. As far as I know, there is no 5.1 multi channel Blu-ray being issued. | |
| Single vs Bi-wire Speaker Cable I am using the William Tell bi wire combo with my B&W 802D3’s. Sound is wonderful. | |
| Audioquest William Tell Zero + Bass vs ThunderBird Zero It sure how helpful this is, but I have the William Tell zero plus bass and the sound is wonderful. Bass is definitely much improved from my previous cables, however, my previous cables were inexpensive bi- wire cables. I have not compared to ... | |
| Close, but no cigar ... Yes, plenty of hate for McIntosh. The 611 is a wonderful amp. | |

| What is a good turntable preamp under $500? Yes, a Grado NM cartridge | |
| Cables recommendation @lnutic I also use Audioquest earth interconnects and William Tell bi wire speaker cables with my B&w 802d3’s, Classe Sigma SSP, and McIntosh 611 amps. Agree, amazing. | |
| What next after Lumin T2 Yes, T2 is now discontinued due to the unavailability of a part. I am curious to see what, if any, major differences in the T3. | |
