One Channel Down in Preamp Help
Cheap way to tide you through if you have another source other than turntable is to buy a Schitt SYS passive for $49 + shipping. 
Newbie Can't Decide Which Tube Amp
Actually skypunk, not sure why you are so gung ho on giving free advertising for a couple of guys who went out of their way to read you the riot act. 
AES48 , is there a test to determine?
@gdnrbob ,Thanks for providing your experience using the XLR cables, very interesting and of course first hand knowledge is best. I’m still using all RCAs at this point.It has always stuck in my brain that Ralph mentioned what we have been discuss... 
AES48 , is there a test to determine?
Let me say in advance I have never used XLR cables.  Also, that I may not be correct in what I believe Ralph was saying.  But I thought he wrote awhile ago that in a true AES48 standard balanced application one XLR cable will sound identical as an... 
SVS vs REL and experiences with both: your comments and preferences...
Sorry and surprised to hear of your problems with your SVS subs.  My two lowly SVS SB12-NSD subwoofers have been cranking for a number of years with no problems, knock wood. 
I should have labeled it Speakers?
String, if it was me I think I would have just picked up the left speaker without disconnecting anything and moved it to where the right was and vice versa.If the noise persist in the left you know its not the speaker, cable, amp or preamp, just t... 
Blue node 2i vs other devices
When the replacement for the 2i comes out, unless there is a substantial increase in price, the resale on the current 2i will nosedive.  True they do not cost that much to start with.  I have a 2i. 
Blue node 2i vs other devices
I have the 2i and it has been around for awhile.  One might guess a new updated model may be coming out.  Just a guess. 
High Frequency Oscillation hurt resistors in Magico A5 crossovers
The trite explanation you received sounds like it was from a low tier employee.  You should request that an explanation be provided by someone in a position of responsibility who can explain or at least try to explain what has caused their product... 
Does the Rogue Cronus Magnum III have any real competition in its same price point of $3k?
@sfar It would be helpful to know the specs as far as sensitivity of the speakers you were driving with the Raven? 
Spades vs Bananas vs Bare Wire Treated with Caig Deox
About the problem of breaking wires or stray wires shorting, a little dab of solder on the bare wire ends will normally take care of that.I have never used them, but there are connectors I have seen that you feed your bare wire through and then tu... 
Raven Audio Nighthawk
Thanks avanti1960 for providing that explanation. Out of coincidence I am considering purchasing a pair of LS50 metas for a bedroom system. I have never heard a Ravens integrated, but have to say that to the questionable extent you can judge an am... 
Raven Audio Nighthawk
@ avanti1960Do you mind sharing why you sold your nighthawk and blackhawk? 
Speaker sensitivity vs SQ
@lalitk  Ever since I traded my 92db efficiency speakers for 96db efficiency speakers, I have been living on easy street. And your speakers are on the larger side perhaps partly as a result of the increased efficiency and larger driver?  And I ... 
Speaker sensitivity vs SQ
@ clearthinkerAn excellent first post. As you can see by Duke’s response above you are correct, there are other factors that are impacted by and to be considered when evaluating a speaker’s efficiency.MC’s response to your thread is somewhat puzzl...
