| Nicotine reidue on drivers I've never tried cleaning a Be driver, but a spray bottle of cleaning solution and a spray bottle of water and air are all I'd let touch them. | |
| Seems like a lot of folks are putting their Primaluna amps for sale... The gear is probably less important than seller's financial situations. Rent is coming due again, and dominoes may fall. | |
| SVS Subwoofer Isolation feet. Will I lose bass? Looks like I dropped a grenade. :) Let me clarify what I was thinking about driver/cabinet motion.

| New speakers and guidance What about a CAT preamp?? One of the best I've ever heard. | |
| SVS Subwoofer Isolation feet. Will I lose bass? And guess what, they ain’t amateurs. Cite your sources. ;-) | |

| SVS Subwoofer Isolation feet. Will I lose bass? Thanks, that's the kind of info I'm looking for. So basically, leave the factory rubber stubbs on sealed woofers on a slab. Yep, unless you can feel vibration through the floor itself. | |
