What tube pre-amps pair well with Pass amps?
The Aric audio preamps seem to be built well with a good circuit design.Can they optimize it for the pass amps when you order one? 
High Performance Audio - The End?
The fact of the matter is that the bulk of audiophiles' systems are not that good. Contemporary music sounds bad on these systems because they simply cannot handle it, while superior systems can. It's foolish to blame the genre of music when the s... 
Tubes?
As was mentioned several times earlier get a tube preamp with octal tubes like the 6sn7, also a tube rectifier. I put a tube preamp in front of my krell amp and it sounds great, it sounded horrible with the solid state preamps I had. I know you ca... 
Preamp suggestions, yes again
The Don Sachs preamp is a good suggestion, but over your budget. Don used to own a space tech labs preamp and he liked a lot, space tech labs has lots of models of preamps that are built to order.  
Who puts their speakers right up against the back wall and why?
I have a pair of Polk sda speakers that image better than most speakers out there and they were designed to be up against the wall. They even image better than my apogee duetta 2's. 
No "Room Correction" Topic option. Why?
I used two layers of 5/8" drywall on the room I built, but I couldn't afford green glue so I used an elastomeric carpet glue at about one tenth the price. The green glue might be better, but this carpet glue worked really good, I still have a scra... 
Shipping. Hard Lesson.
The big shipping company business is so bad you have to actually buy insurance just in case they don't do their job properly.  
700.00 speakers new or used
Too bad there aren't more apogee duetta or signatures out there, you can listen to them all day and get better bass than the maggie's. 
Cable comparison charts?
Why do people think they can measure everything, I  don't think we even measure the charge that we use, instead we measure the current and voltage of ac power which is the medium not what we actually use, so we don't know how to measure everything... 
Need preamp recommendation
don’t believe that’s true.  Last I looked, Don uses a slew of key premium parts that if used in the SP14 would make their prices much more comparable.  Making it sound like the Sachs pre just has a prettier cabinet is inaccurate and sells it way s... 
Hopelessly Confused
If you are searching for a more lush sound just get a 6sn7 tube preamp with home theater bypass and keep using the adcom, avr's don't make very good preamps for music. 
Concrete Audio Speakers...Speaker Enclosures made out of Concrete ?..
Millercarbon concrete and extruded polystyrene are sometimes mixed together, so you could end up somewhere in the middle sound wise. 
How deadly is transformer hummm...
Atmosphere is there any reason why manufacturers don't use nyloc nuts to mount these transformers. They wouldn't come loose with a nyloc nut. 
Same watts at 8 and 4 ohms?
I bought my big krell amp because my apogee duetta 2 speakers are very inefficient at 80db/w.  
something is not right here and it's on purpose!!!
What is this device a schumann resonator?
