| Aerial 10T Mk2 - Suitable Amplifier? It will work, but I think they need a minimum of 200W per speaker. The more the better. | |
| Aerial 10T Mk2 - Suitable Amplifier? I also had good luck with a Levinson 336 driving them. In terms of preamp/amp combo I've tried many and have settled with a Levinson 326S pre with the JC1 monos. It does so much right in terms of what I am looking for.I would not bother with bi-... | |

| Mark Levinson 334 Question They all fail eventually. It's not a SN issue, it's the circuit design of the 3xx amplifiers that are very hard on the caps. | |

You will lose your a$$ on resale and more than likely be stuck with something that doesn't sound any better than what you started with.Spend the money or stay with what you have until you can afford a ... | |
| Parasound A21 In Mono vs. Parasound JC1's The JC1's are better by a significant margin.. I have tried the bridged A21's and the JC1's trounced them which is why I own them. :) | |
| Amps/Preamps for Rockport Aviors Ayre KX-R/MX-R's work extremely well with Rockports. | |
