Rogers High Fidelity Integrated amplifiers
I read the rave reviews of Rogers High Fidelity. I stumbled in The Stereo Exchange in NYC. I saw my amp, EHF200mk2 on display. Me wife thought it was beautiful. I asked for a demo. The amp was hooked up to DeVore Silverback Reference speakers. Imm... 
What Integrated Amp do You use
I’m using a Rogers High Fidelity EHF200 mk2 amp driving my Nola Metro Grand Gold2 speakers. 112 class A watts. Excellent match. May try a VAC Sigma 160, Nola shows with that amp and has won many awards

Recommendations for speakers that sound great at lower volume levels.
Nola Boxers and Contenders sound terrific at low volumes.,very engaging. 
Has anyone heard System Audio Mantra Speakers?
I realize this thread is a bit old. I own SA Explorer Masters. They are about  15 years old. They still sound great. They do everything great. Only took a $40k speaker to replace them. My son already has dibs on them. 
Rogers High Fidelity Integrated amplifiers
I own PrimaLuna dialogue premier mono blocks and matching pre amp, a Cayin A100t Mk2 , Cary Sli80 and the Rogers EHF 200 Mk2. I enjoy all of them. I believe the Rogers to be the best of them. I have them mated to Nola Metro Gold2 speakers. I tried...

What speaker has the best high frequencies?
Nola Metro Grand Gold 2. Nola uses a 4 inch ribbon tweeter sourced from Raal. They reach high frequencies like I’ve never heard. Very detailed but never harsh 
What is an excellent power cable?
I bought 3 Nordost Valhalla 2 meter for $500 each. At the same time I bought Valhalla 4 meter speakers wires. The SC were in need of repair. I thought what the Hell I'll put the PCs in while waiting for the SC to come back from Nordost. I ran one ... 
JA Perspecitve Stereophile review
I own the JA Pulsars and love them. I use them in my den Systm. When it came to updating the speakers in my main system, I went with Monitor Audio PL300ll. They sound fantastic in my 17x26' room. Never harsh, highly detailed, image impeccably and ... 
High-End Standmounts: KEF LS50W vs. NOLA Boxer II vs. Revel M106
I've listened to the KEF Ls50. A very nice speaker. I found the Nola  Boxers to be a much better preformer. Deeper bass, more dynamic, more  detailed and open. I liked them so much I bought the Contenders. I currently own the new Contender S3. Sti... 
Speaker Cable Upgrade... Advice Please
In regards to PCs making a difference. I came across a screaming deal on 3  Valhalla PCs, 2 meters for $500 each.I also bought Valhalla 4 meter Speaker cables for $900. The speaker cables were in rough shape. I sent them back for repairs. 2 weeks ... 
Just Got My Oppo 205!
I agree 100%. I own the 95. Thought the 105d would be better. I don't like that either. I currently use the 105d as a transport feeding a DAC. Will not be buying a 205. Just my opinion. Flat, sterile, uninvolving and lacking musical texture is on ...
