| Walk down memory lane Thank you Jim!I have a graying Lab as well. Love your set up, multiple speaker options to boot!Your 240 is sweet and clean, great hot rodding too. Mine had some minor repairs and refresh a year ago, plus new tubes. It may have more dents and patin... | |
| SVS SB-2000 Pro/3000 vs. REL T/7x Love my PB 2000 pro. Have a couple pre-sets, one for jazz the other for rock. For my purposes it performs flawlessly and folds into my overall system quite nicely. The ability to tune it on the fly from the comfort of my chair depending on my mood... | |
| TEKTON IMPACT MONITORS jayctoyThe way it was explained to me is that any amp can be pushed to clip, or into distortion. No matter how powerful the amp, or the capacity the speakers. Many variables to the music, current coming from the amps and a drivers resistance inter... | |
| What Integrated Amp do You use Two of my old favorites.Original Cyrus One, 25W, gave it to my brother with my old pair of rogers, he destroyed them both.Ariston Amp late 80's cool. 30W. Still have it and it still sings. (with the right speakers). | |
| TEKTON IMPACT MONITORS I miss the days when I could go to a good hifi shop and spend an hour or two discerning between a couple speaker options before I throw down my hard earned scratch. Sigh... | |

| Sota or Technics Well to throw a wrench in my original post, I ended up going with neither. I had the opportunity to borrow a friend's MoFi Ultra deck and ended up loving it! so that's what I brought into my cave. I am more than pleased with it. Super solid build ... | |
| Which subwoofer? I'm a huge fan of my SVS PB2000. I've owned Velodyne and Monitor Audio subs. This SVS is in another league. House shaking low end, great control and presence. I enjoy the ability to use the phone app to really dial it in. For me it would be a no-b... | |
| TDL Compact Monitors Thanks guys, I'm backing away from the abyss. I've let go of several pieces I wish i hadn't. Gave away a nice bookshelf system to my brother, Mission Cyrus one amp with Rogers LS4 speakers. A Threshold 400A amp, an early Cary Hybrid amp 2300A, my... | |
| TDL Compact Monitors I only heard those Reference Standards once in a customer's home. Big power from a MAC 2500 or maybe it was a couple BGW's bridged mono. What an amazing sound, effortless power and extension, warm open soundstage. No wonder you regret letting them... | |
| Tube vendors. Vote for Viva tubes. All new tube set for my MAC 240. Very pleased, quick shipping as well. | |
| Where is Cary Audio? I totally agree with you Rodman. I have an early hybrid 2300A. About 80WPC. Great sounding amp. I worked at a local shop and we were a dealer. There are so many Cary products I'd love to find. I had one of their modified Phillips CD decks, essenti... | |

| Best bang for buck integrated amp for $500 And how could I forget Cyrus. I've owned a one and a two. Great sound, built like tanks. I've always wanted to try a Rega | |
| “Best” or rather “Favorite” Conrad Johnson power amp? Back when I sold a few MF 200's? I could be wrong on the model, memory isn't what it used to be. But that was a sweet amp. Plenty of power and if I'm not mistaken it was a hybrid. |
