| LSA 20 Signature Loudspeaker / Great Performer & Great $ Bargain until end of the year Hey Teajay, could you drive these speakers with the XA-25 ? or do you need more power ? | |

| Does It Even Matter? It is NOT all 1’s and 0’s like some people say. The difference in digital front ends such as streamers can vary as much as a changing a cartridge on a turntable. If you want good sound I would avoid bluetooth connections. | |
| Best Speakers for a small Nearfield room, budget at most $10000 (used is also ok) Yes, that is a small room.
