| Recommend a Pre/Pro for $250? I will add something here, My friend owns a Vintage Audio shop he's been in business for almost 40 years so knows his stuff, he wont very often touch older HT receivers as they tend to break easily, lost remotes make them unusable, old tech that's... | |
| Integrated Amp W/Remote that I can ad my own amp. And use the Integrated for preamp only. you could have a remote volume kit installed in an older vintage preamp, if that warm sound is what your after as the newer Marantz stuff is not warm like the vintage stuff was IMO. Also the newer lower end Marantz stuff isn't really anything lik... | |

| How to get KT90s tested Do you have a local Audio shop or dealer (better if they sell tube gear)my bet is they will have a tester or know of one locally you can get them tested at. | |
| Is it even possible to set up a system in 12x12 room? Another consideration is speakers that are designed for placement very close to the wall or even the corners that will give you more room in the room for your listening space. I moved from a 26x18 room to a 11x14 room and found the larger system w... | |
