| Ayre V-5Xe or Bryston 4B-ST Thanks gentlemen for your responses. I was a little concerned about getting too much warmth which i enjoy but not at the expense of losing detail. I want it all I suppose. The system does sound terrific and Lloyd I am keeping my eyes open for the ... | |

| Primare Pre-30, Bryston Bp-25, Plinius CD LAD Soix. Thanks for your response. I am leaning towards the Bryston after a little more research. Any other advice or insight out there? | |
| Balanced and Unbalanced outputs simultaneously Hey thanks so much gentlemen for your prompt and informative responses. I would surely have the amp (and all components) powered down before switching anything. Almarg thanks for the link to the schematic and thanks Kijanki for the Benchmark info.... | |

| Drive two speakers from one amp? Hey Thanks for all the advice. I am going to abandon the idea since I dont want to overtax the amp.(I know that wouldnt happen in series but still) The only reason for the idea is that i had a pair of floor standers that I could use for the center... |
