Mcintosh MC7100 opinion
Thanks to all's feedback so far. - I checked, the tweeters are working as expected.- I'm running Nordost Gold Flatline II bi-wire cables.  A family member of mine suggest that the cables may not be good enough but I used to pair them with 805N bef... 
Amp current - how much high current to go for
Thanks for the continuous feedback.  I had my eye on a Parasound Integrated Amp not too long ago but tax month messed up my plan.  Hopefully just a short delay.Otherwise, I would like to let everyone know that the NuPrime ID-8 finally broken in af... 
how to set shipping costs for speakers?
Thanks for everyone's feedback so far! 
Amp current - how much high current to go for
However, I do notice that with the NuPrime I loose clarity the higher volume I go.  At 55 volume (the amp has 1-99 volume settings in 0.5db increments) setting the sound quality is good but going past 65 the sound starts to get muffled, could it b... 
Amp current - how much high current to go for
Thanks all for your thoughts.  I bought the Kudos C2 based on my listening experience of the X2.  In between I did live with a B&W 805N for six weeks before i had to give it up due to woofer distortion.  Maybe I simply got too used to the B&am... 
Velodyne MiniVee 8 or Sunfire HRS-10
Great suggestion.  What about the SVS SB12-NDS?  I notice on Amazon it's going for $399, a whopping $100 (20%) less than the SB-1000. 
home circuit breaker - good idea or not to increase to higher amp fuse?
Ok sounds like unanimous consensus its a bad idea.  Thanks for everyone's advice. 
Fuse and Power Cable improvements 'how'? - Nuprime ID-8
No unfortunately nobody carries NuPrime around Seattle area.  The few stores here carries Naim, Rega, Cambridge Audio, Rotel.  But these brands don't make good integrated USB amplifiers that meet my digital 24bit/DSD hi-res music needs.  I had a Y... 
Fuse and Power Cable improvements 'how'? - Nuprime ID-8
Thanks again for the inputs so far.  I guess I'll try giving the IDA-8 another 100hrs to see how it sounds with 200hrs of run time.  Then I'll give power cable a try.  Next significant level up USB digital music integrated amp will cost a lot more... 
Fuse and Power Cable improvements 'how'? - Nuprime ID-8
Thanks for the feedback so far.  I'm a little surprised by my experience too.  So far, I've had the amp running for 20+ days with at least 80+hrs if not already surpassed the 100hrs mark.  The Kudos C2 has 88db sensitivity and is known to be relat... 
How do the Elac Uni-Fi UB5s compare to more expensive bookshelf speakers?
Proud former owner of Elac B6 here.  I would highly recommend Elac but you need to know the differences between Elac and KEF sound.Elac - very musical and superb midrange, the entry level Elac will play vocal and simple music very well with upstre...
