| Amp Stands - Wood or Stone I have never heard any amp sound different no matter what it was sitting on. | |
| Help needed with new integrated amp. The LRS is a badly flawed speaker. A change of amps will not improve its sound. Go to Audio Science Review and read the test report. Yes, ASR is anathema to folks here but speaker measurements don't lie! | |
| Alternative to Zyx Ultimate Airy There's a Miyajima Carbon here on Audiogon for $2150. | |

| Gilbert Yeung C312 Preamplifier Review Blue, green, red and clear goop! LOL! Take a look inside a Boulder preamp to see quality workmanship! | |
| The Allure of Vintage Audio Gear @stereo5 : I have both the tall and the short Rectilinear III speakers in my collection. Along with a pair of the mini-III's. Excellent but now forgotten speakers. I believe Richard Shahinian designed the III's. | |

| Definitive Technology BP 30 Yes indeed! Keep and enjoy the BP30/AS2200 combination! | |
| Audeze MM-100 A good choice here! | |
| Need suggestions on preamp The LRS is a badly flawed speaker. Measurements don't lie! Your HiFi Man phones are far more accurate! Don't waste money on a preamp. Buy better speakers like Revels. | |
| Using a power strip in an old home that was build back in 1955 You will need an adapter plug to use that Amazon strip with your two-prong AC outlets. | |
| Using a power strip in an old home that was build back in 1955 My old house was built in 1953. Same type of outlet wiring. A circuit breaker panel instead of fuses. I never had a problem no matter how many components I plugged into the outlets. So why worry? Use whatever power strip you want. They won't affec... |
