| Should people with no turntable or reel to reel be considered audiophiles? Yes!The Porsche analogy is a good one.

| Tube Preamp with Solid State Amp? Haven’t heard from the OP for awhile. Fairly safe to presume that the Parasound gear predated the 4th iteration of the Cornwall in your system. I am by no means knocking Parasound, as I think they manufacture well-engineered solid state gear for a... | |
