Why the hate for mcintosh amps?
Instead of green light, maybe purple or red, not pink or yellow.    like exit lights, cant turn off green.     what if i have green vision allergies, its possible.    
Review: ALLNIC AUDIO L-10,000 OTL/OCL Linestage Preamplifier
Nice review. how would this preamp get along with a lumin x-1 (streamer/dac) which recommends balanced cables?        
Architectural Digest finally shows audio gear!
Super!  I remember posting about AD ignoring great looking systems.  Soon there will be more and maybe ads too.  AD editors read these posts.  
Best sounding processor
Ljutic, what is arc? How does it impact sound?  
Santa didnt bring me a $20k linestage
When i sat lapside i thought we shared a moment.  Seems i need to absorb more herein to further enhance my connection skills.  
Line Stage Preamps that blew you away $2500 Edition
Dont u get a better linestage by spending 10 to 15k? 2500 seems low endish with limits  
Preamp differential tube gain (12 db gain) - whats this mean?
Thx, seems this differential tube gain benefits sound in my system, both ht and stereo.  Really livens things up when passing ht sound thru this preamp.  And ht even gets better after using dirac.       
Dirac Live - horrible? Dont work
Thx impulse looks very similar.  Maybe a good amp helps before dirac modifies it. freq curve calculates to a flatter curve which i guess is better.  Better freq representation via smoother variation in freqs i guess is why its better.    
Dirac Live - horrible? Dont work
Yes, but what does one see in the curves?   
Dirac Live - horrible? Dont work
Kept trying to reload autosaved filed and it eventually loaded onto the processor. so i then listened and my impression is that it gets louder due to an increased gain setting.  Too much gain it can be unpleasant.  Of course turning up volume wit... 
Dirac Live - horrible? Dont work
So used a microsoft laptop and it worked better but still had problems.   it did all the sound tests, all completed sucessfully.  Then when proceeding to filtered design it failed.  This happened a few times.  And the autsaved data failed to relo... 
NAD M10 Streaming Amplifier
Dirac live dont work very well. Wont process data.  
HT Sound quality - best processors and/or combined with preamp?
Dbphd,  thanks great comment   Soix, not so much  
HT Sound quality - best processors and/or combined with preamp?
SQ i fear is secondary for ht enthusiasts.     goal is best sounding ht and stereo sound in same system.
