| phono preamp break-in machine Yes, you get it. The CD puts out a very low-level signal so as not to overload the phono stage. Reversed RIAA equalization too, though I wonder why that matters. | |
| Coincident Dragon Amplifier At 2007 RMAF, I think Lou was showing with Red Dragon. | |
| $20k top, full range speakers? In my experience, Dynaudio will not give you the performance at low volume that you seek. Not bad, but not great. | |

| Ideas re Spectron mated to Joule-Electra I'd like to try to LA450ME too, but beyond my budget. My speakers are Dunlavy SC-IIIA and the Spectron is my amp. Searching for a new pre. | |
| $20k top, full range speakers? If you like the looks of the Thiel 3.7 (some do, some don't), they're quite a bargain and do well at low volume. Are Quads a possibility? Because when it comes to low-volume excellence, very little can touch Quads. | |

| Speakers after GMA Europas Two octaves? | |
| Speakers after GMA Europas Sure they do: first-order crossovers, time- and phase-correct. | |
| Power strip recommendation. Is your need for a power strip to get more outlets or do you need filtering or surge protection? Either way, any device you use will have a "sound," at least that's been my experience. As with everything power related, you need to try a variety of... | |
| Best speaker in the US $ 30-45.000,00 range I find it amazing that in the last 4 + years, not one pair used on the Gon. I wonder how many pairs there are extant. |
