| Best SET power amp below $5,000 If you’re in no hurry (up to a 2 year wait) Decware is releasing a new 300B amp that according to the owner/builder is supposed to be pretty darn special. I haven’t seen a price yet but should be in that $5000 range. (Note) if you want to dump yo... | |

| Power supply question for streamer Does the PS get really hot? 1.5A seems a little low for the device. For a little over $100 you can get a 12V 18Ah Lithium LiFePO4 Deep Cycle Battery and charger that will give you clean power for almost 8 continues hours. Need more time? Just ... | |
