| How to add to my 2-chanl int. amp for home theater Ddoneff, Enjoy it!FWIW, I have a Cayin TA-30 tube integrated feeding GMA Europas for my music enjoyment. For home theater, I run an Outlaw 950 pre/pro, the lt/rt fronts go to an input on the Cayin, with the volume set to, you guessed it, 12 o'cloc... | |
| How to add to my 2-chanl int. amp for home theater It has worked for many of us. Like I said, I use 12 oclock on the integrated. And it is still a low-level signal. Even with active preamps, they act as more of an attenuator rather than increasing the signal. | |
| How to add to my 2-chanl int. amp for home theater "It's not possible to connect the HT receiver's pre-amp outs to a line-level input on my integrated amp, is it?"Sure is, and this is what is being suggested above. Once you have it hooked up, set your integrated's volume to an easy to remember vol... | |
| Do you recommend this Outlaw deal? Prpixel, Yep, it was enabled. In fact it was working just fine on the Parasound pre/pro I was using before the Outlaw. (P/SP-P/DD-1500 combo). And it occured with at least 2 different cards, and one onboard. It might be because my 950 was one of t... | |
| Do you recommend this Outlaw deal? Superb customer service, great products at the price point. I have had a 950 for 2 years, and like it quite a bit. It has some serious competition out there now in a similar price range, such as Rotel, but nothing like that combo for $2k!The 950 i... | |

I heard many goodthings about it and it can use KT88 tubes as well as EL34s."This is a great little amp, but be aware that it can only use the KT88's if has been modded with new bias p... | |

| The New GMA Callisto is one good looking speaker.. Tcbannon, I am thinking of going. I just live up the road in Cheyenne, WY, so only a couple of hour drive for me. I love the Europas, and even though I have only had them for a few months, the Callisto has my upgrade bug churning!John | |
| GMA Europa discontinued? Oh the decisions. To get the Calisto's or not? Love my Europa's, and these look to be even better. The 91-92 db sensitivity really grabbed my attention. The Europa's sing on a Cayin TA-30, single-ended might be fun to play with on the Calisto's. | |
