T+A's new R 2500 R integrated amp
I listened to this unit at the Florida show couple months ago and it was very impressive. the r2500r unit was powering the T+A 420 speakers, streaming and a VPI TT with that DS optical cartridge and dedicated phono pre. Open and airy, powerful pre... 
Looking for... Integrated tube amp with phono
Couldn't agree with you more @ericgale   
Looking for... Integrated tube amp with phono
Please don't get me wrong, I do agree that Rogue is not in the same league as CJ, VAC, BAT, Mac, Lux and even Cary. I believe Rogue fits into a close proximity sonically, and meets a mid fi need for lower cost/high value. All the way around my Car... 
Looking for... Integrated tube amp with phono
@ron325 i owned a Rogue Atlas 3 a couple years ago. That was a damn good amp. Well made, authoritative and musical sounding, built like a tank. I like Rogue as a company, they were always responsive when I had a question. Hard to go wrong there.  
Looking for... Integrated tube amp with phono
@ron325  Honestly that's a tough one. I have listened and sold some CJ gear when I worked in the hifi store. One of my favorites was the CJ MF200, that was a great amp for sure. I have never heard the 60, though I have read it's really good as mos... 
Looking for 50-100 watts of Tube Power (give or take) for my JBL 4349s
Just my two bits. There's been several really great suggestions already. I would like to pitch Cary products. I used to sell them in the 90's and always wanted an SLI 80 ever since I first set one up and played hundred of hours of musical enjoymen... 
Looking for... Integrated tube amp with phono
Full disclosure, I am going to recommend taking a look at a Margules ACRH3, that is for sale currently, on The Music Room's site, yes it is mine. It may have what you are looking for. I found it to have plenty of power 100wpc, an excellent phono s... 
Any normal size speakers that sound like Volti
@snapsc  I listened to the new Volti Lucera at the FLA and just loved them. Fits perfectly between the Rival and Razz. I'm trying to be the goodest boy I can be in hopes that my WAF request form is approved and I can bring a pair home.   
Advice and recommendations needed for a turntable rig...
Just my two cents. I have a MoFi ultra deck. Super easy set up out of the box, 5 minutes or less. I also bought the MoFi phono pre amp. Very happy with this set up as my re-entry back into LPs. The pre-mounted Master Tracker mm cart is really very...

Volti does it again!
You pose a very good question and point Greg. For instance the pizza I grew up on in my side of town is known to be not that popular among people who claim to know better, or “Foodies”… but for me, it’s a must have once a week. Many others too as ... 
Volti does it again!
@larryi  I have a recovered single horn and folded cab that I pulled out of an old theater. It was made and installed by International Projector Corp. The drivers from what I understand were actually made by Jensen. The horn compression driver wei... 
Volti does it again!
One of the most striking things you demonstrated to me was the difference between an of the shelf or typical horn, with a 1 inch or less throat compared to the two inch used in my Razz, was the lifelike and natural sound. Speaking in a normal voic... 
Volti does it again!
Greg has some pretty epic roads all around him, I got to experience them first hand, I'm a bit envious. Here in NE Ohio one has to drive a bit to get to them. They are great especially in the southern part of the state.  For those considering a v...
