Recommendation for a highly resolving amp
I will certainly consider the room treatment. Mean while, I want to go back to the amp question.@yyzsantabarbara, are you talking about Simaudio 860 or V2? How do they compare with W8? 
Recommendation for a highly resolving amp
My friends room is significantly larger than mine, so the comparison is really apples and oranges. I can't do anything about the tiny size of my room. Since I do not own a Roon, I don't know how to get the room analyzed. I am using Audiosensibilit... 
Recommendation for a highly resolving amp
When I tried fiber optic, it sounded a bit harsh and I didn't like the sonic character. I do have room treatments, behind the speakers and on side walls.

@phcollie.    Have you compared Bryston cubed to other amps?@mboldda1.  My friend is reluctant to move his amp as it is >60 lbs. 
Recommendation for a highly resolving amp
I have tried fiber optic and other top 6SN7 tubes. Not big difference. By resolving, I mean high resolution, clarity, detail.What do people think about the Bryston cube series? Specs are similar to Spectral amps.

Lumin X1 streamer/Dac and Audiosensibility cables. 
Class D Purifi Eigentakt / Mark Levinson 333 / Benchmark AHB2 - Listening & Conclusion
@georgehifiYou clearly prefer vertical biamping AHB2 than bridging monos. My Soundlab Esl has only one pair of terminals. What do I do in this case? Also, someone told me that since these speakers can go down to 1-2 ohm at high frequency, AHB2 may... 
Best phono stage for Lyra Etna SL cartridge?
by Current mode, you mean Lino C? 
Best phono stage for Lyra Etna SL cartridge?
I thought that the impedance will control how bright or dark the sound is. I have slight sibilance that I want to get rid of, so I went to the lowest impedance of 14 ohms. I still hear some brightness. I can't lower the impedance anymore. 
VTA adjustment on Technics 1200G
Dover,I just ordered a spacer. Hopefully, that will work out. The arm is level when I eyeball it, but that is not very accurate, obviously. 
Best phono stage for Lyra Etna SL cartridge?
Technics 1200G, Kitsune phono, Don Sachs 2 preamp, Pass x350.5, Soundlabs M545.

Chakster, You used to have the Microseiki copper mat. That is thicker and better than the 1200g rubber mat? 
SOTA NOVA, HR-X VPI, Technics 1200G recommendations?
I don't see any reference to voltage selectors in the manual. 
SOTA NOVA, HR-X VPI, Technics 1200G recommendations?
Sorry, I haven't responded for so long. Due to personal reasons, I just started to set up my 1200G today. I got a Lyra Etna SL cartridge to go with it. Bad news is that this practically new 1200G doesn't turn on. I checked all the connections. The... 
SOTA NOVA, HR-X VPI, Technics 1200G recommendations?
An update. I just got Technics 1200G and a slightly used Lyra Etna SL. In the process of setting up. I will update once I get a feel for the sound.
