| NEED ADVISE ON AN AMPLIFIER TRANSACTION Whew! I sold an amp to this guy. I must say that I was very concerned at first and maybe I was lucky. The only way I felt comfortable was the fact that it was shipped to Miami. I told him I have no control over what happens after it arrives and he... | |
| Environmental Potentials whole house surge protection, can I get your opinions? Furman's claim to fame is their application to commercial or professional sound applications.

| Killer Floor Standing Speakers under $4000 for Rock? Gotta give another thumbs up to Legacy Audio Focus 20/20's. There was a comment about driving them with SS not measuring up to tubes. Can't comment on the tubes but my Plinius SA-103 sounds awesome through them! | |

| Volume Increase of decrease as system improves I think listening volume for me is dependent on a couple of different factors. The piece of music, my mood and what I am doing at the time all seem to have an impact on volume level. I also seem to notice a direct correlation between alcohol consu... | |

| On board or outboard DAC? Thanks for your comments Theo. I use an Oppo 103D for video and have tried it for 2-channel music as well. I always go back to the Ayre myself. That's why I thought I would seek responses prior to hunting up a cable. I really enjoy each piece of g... | |
| On board or outboard DAC? gdnrbob,I appreciate the response. The more I dig into this the more I feel that I may be best off to leave well enough alone. We always look for that one more tweak to make our systems better. I think I'll just stick with what I have. |
