| Anybody here pair a Kinki EX-M7 with a Magnepan LRS+ ? SST Son would be my choice. Designed by the great James Bongiorno of SAE/GAS/Sumo - now Spread Spectrum Technology. I have two GAS Sons and a Thoebe preamp. Also a Sumo Andromeda amp and Athena preamp. All good stuff! | |

| New to Streaming @1happyman +1! I second your choice of the Wiim Pro! Die-hard 'philes won't like it because how can anything so cheap be any good? Doesn't Wiim have a budget version for like $70? | |

John was surprised and remarked that they typically sold used for around $1200/pair! I still have them in use and wi... | |
| I want to give away my Audio Research D-52 Bad idea to encase parts of the circuitry in resin or epoxy! How stupid can the designers be! Something goes wrong and all you have is a door stop! I might have read a positive review of the D52 way back when in TAS. | |
