| Does Hearing Loss Disqualify Me from Audiophiledom? @krelldreams Can I guess what brand of amps you have pushing those Magi's? I would like to try to LRS plus. I'm thinking my Krell Duo 300 XD will be able to push them properly. 3.7s are out of reach financially. I think the Magi's would be a... | |
| what are your top "audio bargins" in your system history? Krell Duo 300 XD found on Offer Up for $3,000. Guy purchased a random pallet and just wanted to make his money back.

| What selections do you play when showing off your system to others? Delayed response... First, the guy asked what selections do you play. Just list the songs you feel show your rigs capabilities and stop with the lack of "emotional connection" I went through most of the posts and listened for songs that made my... | |
| Audiophile Speakers for Rock, HipHop and Techno For what its worth, my Klipsch Forte IV's paired with an SVS 4000 sub excel at these genres. | |
| Need help choosing a new DAC Fellow Deadhead here... I posed the DAC selection question to Schiit just yesterday and here is their (surprising) response: I would like to incorporate a standalone DAC in my rig and was looking for suggestions. Your prices are all very reaso... | |
