| Benchmark or McIntosh.... Sell the NHT's and buy the biggest pair of Sound Labs ESL's! Nothing as realistic as having square feet of sound radiating surface! | |
| looking for an integrated amp in the $1500 range The Quads (all versions) can't be beat for low-level resolution. Regardless of whether made in the UK or China. | |

| How easily can you distinguish between different DACs? All competently designed DAC's sound alike - whether they cost $100 or $10,000. That's my belief/experience.

| Speakers 10 years old or older that can compete with todays best, @mijostyn : I agree! The DQ-10's we're game-changers for the speaker market. Until the Time Windows came along a few years later! BTW I have the TW's AND DQ-10's. The last awaiting space for set up. | |

| Should I upgrade from NAD T175 to Anthem AVM 50 A sideways move at best! | |
| ARC amp differences. Save your money and buy Prima Luna if you must have tubes! ARC is over-rated and over-priced! If it breaks good luck with repairs before the next decade! | |
