Due to the incessant spam ads on this forum I'll stop contributing
It's interesting to see how many comments are made saying it's not agon issue. However since the issue is isolated to agon forum I disagree.  Agon has admitted their knowledge of this and has been working on a solution. I'm happy to report that th... 
Anyone else gotten SPAM pop ups the last couple of days?
+9 thanks, so far no popups been on about 20 min. That's a record for me so far in the last few weeks.

I would deduct that this crap happens only when I access Agon it's an Agon issue not an individual's equipment/browser issue. But I may be mistaken.

Interesting development, spam/ads only pop up when logged in to Agon. Also spam/ads take over and the Agon site is disconnected. Then the rolling popups start with no way to stop, not by back, no x in popups ad, only way is to exit the web and sta... 
Acurus Act4 Preamp/Processor
@maxwave , THX standard is the recommended setting for sound pressure level at listening position which is 75db optimal for each speaker.80 dB is acceptable but not optimal and usually used when SPL meter does not read in smaller increments. Equip...

Yes and it's happening more frequently.  Kicks me out of Agon everytime.

@maxwave, was trying to set speaker level to THX standard at listening position using internal noise generator on white noise settin.  
Sound quality vs. volume
Insufficient headroom at high output., room treatment will help some but will not make up for headroom deficiency 
Which Class D Amplifier? PS Audio, Ghent, Nord, Merrill or other???

How to tell if some one legit
@viridian , I'll never buy without clear and sharp pictures. More pictures better chance. I'll never buy from overseas, ever. I'll never buy without really good communication before the sale. Communication is the best defense to avoid unpleasant t... 
Reasonable high end interconnects: without breaking the bank
+4 for elizabeth, very good advise given, for the Ops question of silver vs copper again I'm with elizabeth. Spend an extravagant amount assembling silver loom (used) only to be disappointed. Back to copper. I do firmly believe that cables are sys... 
Rogue Audio vs Vincent Audio
Actually I found that , in my case, I could connect ICS from the Rogue variable output to a analog input on my processor and enjoy LP playback in simulated surround if I wanted. A nice bonus. Using the Rogue as phono stage at that configuration. A... 
Most useful tweaks that are sensible and really make a noticeable improvement
@mads1, I completely agree and I myself use these under most of my equipment.  I must say that at $19.99 you're paying too much for 4ea. They are available for $27.99 for a box of 48. Search for AV mounting pads. 
Acurus Act4 Preamp/Processor
Maxwave, evidently you have gained some knowledge thru trial and error. I was understanding that when connected all menu functions were available at the listening position. Am I correct?  I'm fairly sure only minimal tweaks to PEO will need to be ... 
Acurus Act4 Preamp/Processor
@ maxwave, I have the 16. The review was done at factory settings straight out of the box. No settings changed.  Have not yet changed any settings or PEQ. When I do, and I will, after it gets connected to the web, I'll dig deeper into its capabili...
