| Class A Amp owners, Whats your power bill? I was always told that it's no more than a 25 watt light bulb? Any comments.... | |
| Rookie looking amp/receiver advice His generation is tied to PC's for music. Get him something like an idecco with a USB input to stream music. Radio means nothing, what kids even use cd's?Spend an extra $75 on a back up hard drive for his pc as well. That could save his life, grad... | |

| TungSol Golden Aero's EL 34...... Very sweet tubes. Clean, lots of detail. I'm sorry I let my last quad go. Keep them! | |
| Denon 3311 with 5.1 and zone 2 towers? Denon got cheap on us! You used to be able to go into the set up screen and set the level on zone 2 max to anywhere from -60db to 0db. I got rid of a Sony ES for that reason.2 options I see: Using an impedance matching volume control on zone 2 wou... | |
| getting file onto usb flash drive Windows media lossless comes in at about 1/2 the original size on my pc and outputs through the USB. I have used it on 3 pc's with Vista, 7 and XP pro. | |
| New to tuner for 91.7FM UW Madison WI Marakanetz, my office system is actually fairly absurd. If you look at my system, I downsized by using a receiver but everyone stops by my office to check out 5 foot tall 5" wide computer speakers:-).I'm glad to find out that there is a better str... | |

| Once again...looking for a "tube like" SS preamp Class A rated gear is the best you will get. Threshold, Pass Labs, Aragon or even old Sumo or Yamaha M series. | |
| How many power i need??? 1-Canton speakers are NOT very efficient. At 88.5 db for their best speakers(approximately) you will need a lot of power for a room that size. I would guess at 200 wpc minimum.2-I hope you are not trying to fill that big of a room with the tiny li... | |
| Tweeter as my surround?? How about Gallo Micros or Mirage Omnisats or Energy take 5? That's as small as they come. You will need to set the crossover for the surrounds rather high to make up for the bass and let the sub do the work. | |
| Denon 3311 with 5.1 and zone 2 towers? Ray,Even though the BP's are rated at 90db, they can be described as power hungry. Your receiver should have more than enough power to run them though. The speakers rating is simply a maximum wattage rating.The questions may come out of how you ar... | |
| Sumiko Blue Point Special vs. ? HOMC cart? My Sota loves a Clearaudio Aurum Beta S. For less money but 95% of the quality I'd pick a Goldring 1042 over the Sumiko any day. |
