For city apartment dweller audiophiles. Have you ever had neighbors banging on your walls? I can't imagine me being watched or be within the "quiet heaven" boundaries and regulations. It puts me too far away from life and common sense. | |

Best Subwoofer Connection for Music I meant secondary pre-out... That dictates preamp to have 2 outputs and that's usually the case with most of the balanced preamps where one output balanced and the other isn't and one of them can be used to feed sub(s). | |
Tracks that bring out the best of YOUR digital system @motown-l I think you meant Diana Krill right? | |
Best Subwoofer Connection for Music I've always preferred line-in connections to subwoofer via tape-output. |
