Comments on Magnum Dynalab MD-208 receiver
My goal is to downscale my 2nd system replacing the Rowland Concentra integrated amp with the Magnum dynalab MD-208 Receiver. I am not looking for the VERY BEST sound from the 2nd system but I do need it to sound good. I believe the MD-208 will do... 
Comments on Magnum Dynalab MD-208 receiver
The person above says the MD-208 Receiver does not have enough output current for the ProAc 2.5 speakers. The Magnum Dynalab MD-208 Receiver spec sheet says its current output is 30 amps peak. How many amps do the ProAc 2.5 speakers really need? t... 
FM Antennae
I use the Fanfare FM-2G FM antenna (approx. $100). Please see http://www.fanfare.com/fm2g-type.html. I was using the CCrane Reflect fm antenna but decided the Fanfare was better. Of course, the best solution is to install an antenna on your roof. ... 
Plinius or Mark Levinson for Grand Pianos?
I bought the McIntosh MA6900 Integrated amplifier for my Sonus Faber Grand Piano speakers and the overall sound quality is excellent. The extra power plus the tube like quality of the MA6900 really make these speakers stand out. SF Grand Piano spe...

Joseph Audio RM 25si vs Sonus Faber Grand Piano
I own the Sonus Faber Grand Piano speakers (older model) and they need power to make them sound great. I recently upgraded my 50wpc BOW Wazoo Integrated amp to the 200wpc McIntosh MA6900 Integrated amp. The Grand Piano speakers sound much better w...

Assuming you go with the Totem Forest speakers, what amplifier will you be using? Is there a high quality integrated amplifier that you would recommend with the Totem Forest Speaker? Thanks.. 
Need comments on the Magnum Dynalab MD-90 FM Tuner
No. I was not able to audition the Meridian 504 against the MD-90 or the MD-100 (or the MD102). Retailers in the San Francisco Bay Area do not stock any of these models BUT, of course, would be happy to take my check to purchase one. I researched ...
