| Recommend me a tube integrated amplifier I second @larryi and would recommend the Synthesis A40. I have Audio Note ANE SP HE speakers and the synergy is amazing. Feel free to message me if you want additional insight. John | |

| Customs delay from China. How long should I reasonably wait? Relax. Packages from China are being more thoroughly inspected due to counterfeit items and illicit drugs being sent to the US. I have had packages caught in customs from China which the manufacturer has re-shipped that arrived months after the ... | |
| Florida -- Audio Equipment Movers? I would ask my local shop if it is a service they offer. My local has delivered, and set up at my home, my speakers as well as my vinyl rig. John | |

| Sonnet Morpheus Owners! Preamp or Not? I have run my Morpheus direct to my amps, Synthesis 98 mono blocks, and thru my preamp, synthesis 117DC. The preamp opened the soundstage, the music was more realistic, better details with better transients, and a warm engaging sound. I have the M... |
