| Power Cable for Belles 150A Reference Forgot to mention. I've heard good things about Acoustic Zen and Shunyata are these worth checking out? | |

| EQ before Preamp? Good point Ait! I was inputing two sources into the DEQ and switching them from there. | |
| Starting from scratch, passion for "steals" If you like the sound of Vandersteen speakers, I find them to be very natural and non-fatiguing, they perform WAY above their price point. If you only want to spend a few hundred get a pair of 1c's, if you can spend more, it's hard to beat 2ce Sig... | |
| EQ before Preamp? I used to put my Behringer before my tube pre-amp, that way the ss DEQ didn't mess with the "magic" tube pre/ss amp sound. If you run the Behringer's room correction, it's correcting what comes out of the speakers. It shouldn't matter where it is ... | |
| Vandersteen 2ce Signature new version vs 3a Signat From what I understand, the newer 2ce Sig II is a step closer to the 3A Sig. I think it has the same tweeter & maybe midrange too. The bass is still where the big difference is.I've owned 1c's, 2ce's, 2ce Sigs and currently 3A's. IMO, the 3A's... | |
| What do you think of Vandersteen 5a's? I love the Vandie sound. I've owned 1c's, 2ce Sigs and 3a's, haven't heard anything anywhere near their price that I'd rather have. So I say go for it! | |
| Inexpensive integrated to drive Klipsch Anyone have any experience with Arcam? | |
| Inexpensive integrated to drive Klipsch Jaybo-Which Creek? I was thinking about a 5350SE, only because I used to own one and liked it, but not with horns. Is there a better choice? | |
| Speakers that do rock justice ... I just heard a pair of D.A.S. this weekend powered by a Hafler amp, in a nearfield set-up. Absolutely amazing! We listened to modern recordings of rock & rap, as well as some 80's rock and 90's rap, the most lifelike dynamics I've ever heard f... | |

| DAC Recommendations I don't currently own a pre, so I am driving the amps directly from the DAC. Maybe "bright" wasn't the correct term. At louder levels and with more complex music, everything gets congested and a little hard to listen to. This definitely did not ha... | |
