Best Smaller Bookshelf Speakers For Use Exclusively With Ambient Music? I have a pair of Totem Mites with a matching small subwoofer. Beautiful, punchy, natural sound… perfect for listening at any volume. I use them in my office… but if I were looking for what you are… I would buy them again. I use an relatively inexp... | |
$20k(ish) tube preamps From my point of view (with my tastes)I would look at anAudio Research Reference 6SE. My system is all ARC Reference components… I have never owned or heard a more pleasing detailed and natural sounding system. | |

Tune (Hybrid) preamp Making Loud "Burping" Sounds In tubed equipment, if I hear something strange I always swap out the tubes. Then depending on the age of tubes and configuration (one per channel… two, three, or four) start swapping the old back in until I find the culprit. It has always been a ... | |
