| Best Bang 4 the $ Intergrated Amp Audiolab has a nice clean pretty neutral SS sound; it is not sterile and cold nor is it particulary warm. It is sensitive to power cords and other tweaks; also it doesn't like voltage fluctuations, the power supply is not sophisticated enough, so ... | |

| When less is more...10 reasons to own Thorens We can no longer put men on the moon let alone build that kind of turntable. I think, Chinese will do both very soon. | |
| Best Bang 4 the $ Intergrated Amp I wouldn't really call it tube like. I use Custom Power Cord Co. Top Gun power cord; before that I used their entry level Hi-Value which was also much better than stock but this latest upgrade made quite a difference.I also use Purist Audio Maximu... | |
| Best Bang 4 the $ Intergrated Amp Thank you, just watched it. I have had 8000LX for 12 years; great value. Good power cord wouldn't hurt. | |

| When less is more...10 reasons to own Thorens I like everything except #5. No, I don't have Thorens, I have Nottingham. | |
| accuphase compare to mcintosh Michael Fremer says Ypsilon preamp is the best there is. Anyone heard it? Never heard Accuphase, heard some Mac a few years ago, not their best stuff, and couldn't care less about the sound though maybe the cables were junk or not a good match. An... | |
