2 Subwoofers or 1?
Many. It's Audio Advice in Raleigh. Audioadvice.com. This is my first time thinking about subwoofers, so I am really starting from scratch. I appreciate all the advice.   Howard

I don't think two of the T/9x are in budget....  
Yet another question about streaming
Thanks this is helpful.  I'm thinking I am going to start with either the node or one of the Cambridge pieces. I'm also going to rip my CD collection, and probably subscribe to one of the full cd quality streaming services.   
Yet another question about streaming
I think I explained the question poorly. I know the output from the Node will be digital. But what I don't know is whether or not my existing DAC ( an upgraded EAD 7000 series III) will be able to convert the input. I can't find a manual on line t... 
Original Von Schweikert VR4s
Hi @tvad and @ozzy62 I looked at HiFiShark.  That was a good suggestion.  I saw one pair the same as mine that went for $1200, so @ozzy62 was right on the mark. I was also thinking about replacing the grill cloth, but I'm not sure that's going to ...

EAD 7000 Mark III

EAD 7000 Mark III
They are still around.  I talked to Greg this week.  Haven't yet 100 percent decided on what to do, but am leaning towards letting him fix my existing unit. 
Amp to replace Audio Research D200
Has anyone heard the DSI200? They seem to be hard to find used, but I saw one that went for $3000. If I sold my LS 2 and added a little more cash, I could swing it.Howard
