Recommendation on speakers for listening to live music
My Klipsch RF-7 III’s (assisted with a HSU sub) powered by a vintage1978 Yamaha receiver does an awesome job on well recorded live  music. This low budget rig serves me well.

How much does power amplifier really matter comparing to other hi-fi components?
The strongest part of any system is it’s weakest link. …or something along those lines 
You own a store, you sell 2 brands, which?

The Raven Has Landed
tush1,I’m well aware the dude has many critics.I find his antidotes quite entertaining.Very well written as well.If my being fond of MC’s comments bothers you to the point of tossing insults my way, so be it.Knock yourself out.  
The Raven Has Landed
Merely a lurker here. I peruse the forum daily awaiting MC’s take on anything. This guy can paint a picture with his words. A true wordsmith in every sense of the word. Congrats on the Raven. End game gear far as I’m concerned. As you were,then. 
B&W speakers sounding very harsh?
Ozzy summed it up best. B&W’s greatly overemphasizes the top end. I own a pair.Thank goodness for tone controls. I have treble pulled WAY back. At higher volume the sizzling returns. My next speaker purchase I’m going for a dark speaker. The o...

Best sub for music,
Another vote for HSU. Don’t like the super slam of HT?Pull back on the gain. The VTF line of HSU is incredibly versatile.Amazing performance vs dollar factor.Best budget “super” sub in the market IMO 
Streamer Advice / Recommendation for Denafrips R2R DAC
Taming the searing highs from the B&W’s will be a tough task. Best of luck 
Best DAC?
Denafrips Terminator orChord Hugo TT 
For a few dollars more
Correct me if I’m wrong.I think the S&W .44 auto super mag made it’s one & only appearance in Sudden Impact. Dirty Harry used revolvers exclusively. I’m nursing a hangover so I’m probably mistaken. 
For a few dollars more
“it’s a hell of a thing,driving inefficient speakers with a little tube amp. You take away all it has and all it’s ever gonna have.”“Yeah. Well I got they had it coming.””We all have it coming,kid.” 
Best multi-purpose subwoofer
The flagship HSU can be tailored to whatever your particular needs may be. If you want it to blend perfectly to your setup or if you want it to be the star of the show,it has you covered.$1,000 shipped.
