25 watts Class A or 70 watts Class A/B ?
Pani,As we both know, listening to all the choices is the only way to get a definitive answer (easier said than done).Depending on the type of sound you're after I can understand the 450 watt amplifier recommendation. From your list the First Watt...

Wisnon,Sorry, I just thought most people on this site were familiar with the knowledgable and long time contributor on audiogon. 
25 watts Class A or 70 watts Class A/B ?
Pani, I would think the 25 watt First Watt amplifier is a very good match with your speakers.I doubt that you'd be disappointed given your listening preferences.Charles, 
What direction should Hi Fi tune fuse be installed
Rodman, Nice post and historical quotes! I respect the study and application of science. I do recognize there are numerous phenomenon and questions that science simply can't explain or answer (yet). At this point in time it seems our ear/brain det... 
New Lampizator Level 4/ Version 4 DAC in the house
According to Al Porter Allnic has just introduced their DHT DAC and he's ordered one. Having heard the Lamp level 7 it'd be fun to contrast these two different DHT circuit products. The Allnic will be at the Munich audio show.Charles, 
Zesto Bia 120
My experience is based on only show listening (CES 2014) but the all Zesto system was exceptionally good and sounded better than many more expensive rooms/systems there. I think it's one of the very better push pull tube amplifiers available. I kn...

Andrew,I believe that you will simply love the Lampizator level 7. DHT tubes when implemented property convey emotion and music's soul divinely! I have DHTs in my amplifier and line stage and just adore the music they produce. I hope your wait for...

Tas,Well said and I understand your passion. Once people realize to focus on the "natural" reproduction of music in place of hifi dogma and criteria they're much better off (and happier). I want to enjoy music rather than analyze and obsess over t...

Tas,We share the same philosophy regarding audio components. Buy the components that really move you and connect emotionally with your music, then try to extract the most potential they have to offer. This approach has worked beautifully for me .C... 
Pre-Amp for Class D Amp
Response34, A modest correction, 3 volts amplifier input sensitivity would be considered "low" not high sensitivity. The lower the volts= "higher" sensitivity. An amplifier with .5volts is more sensitive than an amp with 2 volt input sensitivity f... 
New Lampizator Level 4/ Version 4 DAC in the house
Tbg,I heard the BMC DAC (show conditions all BMC system) and it wasn't bad. I've heard the Lampizator level 5 (big box) extensively and in all sincerity the Lampizator is in a different realm reproducing music. Jafox made a good choice and I doubt... 
Pass Labs amps and Avantgarde speakers
I agree with Nvp, with this speaker you're using mere fractions of a watt the vast majority of the time. The quality of the first watt is what you hear. Preference is of course subjective taste. Chadeffect owns this brand's Trio speaker and has us... 
Whats the ultimate 300b or 211 set amp 36watts rm
I don't believe anyone has declared that the Wyetech (or any amplifier) is the" best". Zanth only says the Wyetech Ruby SET amplifier is the best he's heard so far. I didn't interpret that as a universal proclamation. I have no doubt that the Puri...
