| Class D for a Tube Lover If you can wait, Ralph Karsten is close to completing his Class D amps.If he can build tube amps that sound great, I have no doubts his Class D amps will be just as good.Bob | |

| The Belles Aria Signature Integrated Amplifier Though I have no intention of ever buying LFD equipment, I am glad @ianrmack gave his input.It makes the phrase YMMV relevant IMHO.Nuthin' but acronyms here, today.B | |
| The Belles Aria Signature Integrated Amplifier @mr_m ,With the Vandy sub/crossover, you could easily get away with 60wpc, thanks to Mr. V's design. I haven't heard LFD and their website is even more minimal than Belles.Bob | |

| Townsend springy platforms for my Sasha 2s, springs not ISOA GIAS, HRTs for electronics??? +1.Though I don't use the Podiums under my speakers, I do use them, Platforms and the Pods under my equipment- to great effect- tighter bass, and more articulation of the notes.Worth the money, IMHO. And, they are built well and are attractive, to... | |
| My system....what and how will cabling impact? I have found cables to be system dependent, so the Audioquest cables that I use for my system may not work as well as yours.Given that you have Wilson and D'Agostino, I would try to find other owners with similar equipment in order to get the best... | |
| High End Bookshelf Speakers My little Vandersteen VLR's, paired with a Belles Aria Integrated and a set of AQ William Tell speaker cables would put many systems to shame.Your positioning of the speakers would be ideal for the VLR's and if you got a Vandy sub and crossover, y... | |
