Circle Labs A200 Integrated amplifier review - It will appeal to both tube and SS lovers……
Thanks @facten Yes, I should probably clarify that statement. I was really referring to designing gear. I am good with a soldering iron, understanding parts and how they sound, and know how to build very good sounding cables for reasonable money...

@facten  You have some nice amplification! Just looking back at your system and see the Line Magnetic and Finale Int amps. You also have some Modwright separates. Yes, you need another intergraded amp sir 🙂.

@lalitk ,   Oh my! I just finished looking at your system. I would love to hear it someday. The Tannoy Canterbury GR speakers are fabulous. I also know the Merging digital units are very special. The Luxman amp, subs, turntable to die for, your ...

I love my Fyne F704 speakers! Just a joy to listen to. I need to update my pictures as the speaker placement has changed and we have two new diffusion panels. The panels will be installed tomorrow afternoon. A large custom build is going on the wa...

Ozzy, Colin is far more than a nice talker. He puts action behind his words. I find him a rare commodity these days. Low keyed gentleman that puts no pressure on you and speaks respectfully about other dealers and brands. Just a kind man. He has ...
