| Tube Preamps..... Really? No one mentioned a used Manley Neo Classic 300B with two pre-outs to support the Vandys in future with a JL sub? There, I’ve said it. Ciao | |

| where best to spend $2-3000 upgrade dollars in my system Quadraspire X-Reference rack. The room treatment suggestions are also great. I would never have believed the quantum leap in every aspect of sound reproduction a great stand can produce had I not experienced it myself. Best of luck. | |
| First Tube Amp Might consider a hot rod Dynaco 70 from Vincent in Lewiston. While I do not own one myself, I’ve spoken with quite knowledgeable audiophiles who attest to the premier sound and build of the product. His upgrades are well thought out and applied.... | |
| noisy tube preamp Upscale Audio for a tube overhaul. Good information on the website. Probably will fix the whole thing. Enjoy. | |
| Can anyone recommend a great tube preamp that also has a headphone out? Manley Neo-Classic 300B. Just upgraded to Takatsuki 300B tubes which now makes it officially amazing. Used it falls in your price range. | |

| Speaker cable suggestions for Sugden A21SE integrated AKG: The speakers are Merlin TSM BME Black Magic monitors. I've already upgraded the PC which did improve everything. Thanks. | |
| Manley Jumbo Shrimp upgrade Thank you for insightful responses. | |

| ASSEMBLED IN CHINA Yes, essentially I agree with the premise. However, there are several components and one of them is the American consumer. We are essentially cheap and always on the hunt for something for nothing. A 1970s Luxman receiver brought forward with i... | |
| The Worst Speaker you have ever heard. jvogt is correct, for the money and sound quality, arrrrggghhhhh..... A friend who runs a high-end shop describes it akin to barbed wire run between the ears back and forth. | |
| What makes a good Hi Fi rack improve your system. Great question. I use the Quadraspire Sunoko Vent and it is tremendous replacing what I assumed was credible, a Target stand. Turns out the Target muddied things, how weird is that? The bass is much less bloated, imaging improved, I really don'... |
