Preamp for Halo A21 and/or B&K ST2140
I've been using a21 with CJ pv15 in my back up system, and they sound good together. I mean really good. 
Acoustic Zen Crescendo speaker crossover capacitors ... who makes them?
Does anybody knows the origin of the Crescendo drivers? 
Bluesound Node 2
It's a great toy. Even though I don't have my music on files, it's just the most fun piece for Internet-radio streaming. I have mine connected via digital coax to Marantz sa8004 SACD player's dac. Sounds much better than when connected directly to... 
Recommnedations for moderately price balanced IC's, and adaptors to an RCA end
mensch, if there's no technical mismatch like input/output impedance, etc, between the BAT and Rogue, there should be no concern. I have a full Bat system, but sometimes I use the amps with my CJ preamp, which is, of course, single-ended. I'm usin... 
Recommnedations for moderately price balanced IC's, and adaptors to an RCA end
Why do you need a xlr cable? Your current Rogue is not balanced, neither is rp-1. Just order a hybrid cable with male RCA and xlr ends. 
Which Chip?
Jafant, When the EMC1 UP was in production, OPPO didn't even exist. I can't even imagine on what stereo5 has based his/her assumption of the OPPO being the base of the EMC player.As a dedicated player, it's simply one of the best. I owned it once,... 
Which Chip?
I realize this thread is old, but if stereo5 is still around, I have to ask - do you work for Oppo? If no, why would you spread this silly disinformation? The EMC 1 UP CD player has nothing to do with that Chinese Oppo everybody's raving about. Be... 
REL subs with BAT amps
I use BAT amplification with the REL b2. You don't have to attach the ground wire to the amp frame. The most convenient, and right way is to attach the ground wire to the BAT preamp's ground connector. That's what I did, and that's what's describe... 
Acoustic zen hologram 2 with spades
I have the same cables, got them brand new with similar spades. In my case I didn’t have connection problems. Robert Lee is a very helpful guy, just give him a call. 
Recommendations for XLR interconnect cables on a BAT system
I use Acoustic Zen Absolute Copper with my BAT gear. Sounds very good to my ears. 
REL Base Line Blue
First off, I must note that I've never heard the B1 nor the Bassline, BUT... I have a B2, and I always thought it is an average sub until I replaced its stock power cord and cable with the custom-made pieces. The bass started to sound just as it s... 
Review: Acoustic Zen Absolute Copper Interconnect
I have checked with them, and Robert Lee is the owner. Schubert, where did you get that gossip? 
TUBE AMP LOVERS - What SS amp makes you smile???
My BAT vk-255se definitely makes me smile. 
Looking for integrated better than my Rogue Sphinx
Melbguy, the more facts folks here provide on the Luxman matter, the more defensive you get. Do you work for Accuphase? Or, more likely, Luxman has a special Chinese-made line for the Australian market only (don't get excited, it's a joke). 
Integrated Amp Utilizing 2 Prong Power Cable
C7 is a different standard. Its prong's body is rounded, while the OP's question is about the blade-like prongs. That said, I've been using the regular three prong type cord on one of my 2 prong CDPs, and nothing bad happened so far. No noise or e...
