| China built tube amps Your dealer is lying to you to push the products he wants to sell you, and he's using his xenophobia to appeal to people's prejudices. It's a pretty telling indication of his character, that's not someone you want to deal with. | |
| Best speakers around $130k? Based on your pre and amp, as well as you feeling Wilson is too forward, Kharma Exquisite Classique or Midi would be perfect for you. They are probably one of the best speakers I've ever heard, and go absolutely fantastic with Boulder electronics. | |

| Cambridge dac? I haven't heard the Schiit monos, but I recently heard a $150K system fed by a 10 yr old $200 Cambridge 540c CD player, and it was one of the best systems I've ever heard. There is some magic in the dual Wolfson dac in these Cambridge, I would rec... | |
