I have a blown driver and I'm not sure what to do
It seems you are overdriving your speakers. Is it a volume issue or maybe an amp issue? 
Mark Levinson ML7 auction
I agree with cleeds. This is a relatively rare and expensive piece. Do you really want to do business with someone that said he would ship and then won't answer your questions? 
Pathos Classic One MKiII vs. my separates
Yes, I recently acquired a matched pair of Matsushita-National 7DJ8 tubes (made in Japan) from a seller over at AudioMart. I only have a few hours on them, however they sound really good. The tubes they replaced are rare Valvo Cca’s, expensive and...

Pathos Classic One MKiII vs. my separates
I had an all Pass Labs Aleph system for years. Due to a remodel, I had to downsize my system. I decided on a Pathos Classic One MKII and loved it. I had a chance to get a MKIII and did. The think the MKIII is marginally better than the MKII. The o... 
After nearly 20 years, I left Magnepan and went ProAc

Supra wire impressions vs. WE/Dueland wire
I agree with nonoise 100%. I use the Supra Ply 3.4W (wide) and could not be happier with the sound. Not only great sound and value, they are easy to work with and terminate. 
Very Bad purchase from upscale audio Acoustic Zen Adagio
The whole thing should not have been posted on an open forum. It is between the buyer & seller. Since the OP posted it, comments are going to happen. " At the end of the day" means just that. Pull the emotion out from the OP, KD and everyone e... 
Very Bad purchase from upscale audio Acoustic Zen Adagio
