| Madman! Digital vs Vinyl Digital is pure convenience. Vinyl is pure bliss. | |
| Class A or Class D solid-state amplifiers (modern designs) This is a troll question and insult to any audiophile. How can you be an audiophile and not already know which design is superior? Everyone knows Class A is pure euphoria. Stop this noise about Class D. But in the end you make a choice and pay you... | |
| No more "High End" for me...Back to Reality Audio Good 4 you. It’s a waste of money. Keep everything under a strict budget and ignore the latest and greatest. | |
| Tube Integrated vs Tube Seperates I was once a separates only guy. For the past 10 years I’ve only listened to integrated’s. They’re very good and very affordable. That PL will be good enough. Don’t buy into the noise others here are selling. | |
| China built tube amps Good on you for taking the plunge Falconquest! I hope it meets your needs. I’m more than happy with my Willsenton R8! | |
| China built tube amps Wow! That Carver Crimson 275 sounds like a real dog! $3k for a made in America amp that doesn’t meet specs? Do you know what I can buy for $3k? How on earth are people buying that amp, and who in the world is Carver using to build them? | |
| China built tube amps Too many Xenophobic buyers on this thread. Don’t use your phone. It was likely built in China. | |
| China built tube amps Exactly. Good luck buying a cell phone trying to avoid Chinese built products. Is there a single phone that doesn’t have Chinese products or a Chinese build in it? I think not. Hypocrites. | |

| China built tube amps In 35 years I’ve owned amps from all parts of the world. Have you noticed how small the world has become? Have you noticed how much of your household appliances are made in China or Taiwan? I’m what you call a risk taker. High risk, high rewards.... | |
| Best CD player from this list The 508.24 was Stereophile A, and one of the finest players I’ve owned. But it’s ancient by today’s standards. | |
| How Big of a Difference? Heck no. Audio Snake oil! | |
| Do we really know what "Live" music sounds like? Your not hearing unamplified music at a rock concert. The only music to hear unamplified is classical or jazz. Period. I’ve been to enough jazz scenes in very small clubs to know what live music sounds like. Real tenors, horns, pianos, etc. And it... | |
| Please recommend speakers For $800, but not $1k? Okay let’s face it, there’s not a speaker in the world at your price point even near the Magnepan LRS. Those speakers are light years ahead of anything else at that price point. End of story. | |
| Primaluna? PL makes exceptional gear. They’ve improved a lot over the past 16 years. The parts in their amplifiers are first class. It’s not the finest amp you can buy. But it’s not $30k either. And can’t you sample their gear without committing to a purchas... |
