| ZYX Universe and Lyra Titan You know Sirspeedy I agree with you about manufacturers assuming that many audiophiles have limited common sense. Unfortunately, there is a pervasive attitude that equates audio performance with price. And as you are aware this is certainly not th... | |
| ZYX Universe and Lyra Titan Dougdeacon:I just thought at the time that your learning curve seemed pretty steep and your exposure to so many different “hard to audition” components was extensive in such a short time.I may not always agree with your points but they are always ... | |

| Audio Research vt100mkll question Borg:I am happy for you. As I had suggested the resistors were the culprit.The VT100 MKII is a fabulous sounding amp with surprising power. EnjoyGeorge | |
| How do you bi-amp with tubes and solid state I second Kal's recomendation. I am biamping a MG 3.5 with ARC VT100 MKII on the treble/midrange and SS monoblocks (Kenwood L07M) on the bass panels. I am using a Marchand XM126s electronic tube xover. You need the active xover to adjust the xover ... | |

| ARC VTM120 Any thoughts? Over the past 30 years I have owned three ARC amps:D76A, D115 MKII, VT100 MKII (which I am still enjoying). They were all very musical and great performers. None could be characterized as "DRY" sounding.Apparently Audiofeil is limited in his expos... |
