| Thiel CS6 Hi! I power mind with a Classe 301, using a Joule tubed pre-amp. Seems to be a good match. | |
| Symdex speakers any information on these? Viridian,My memory is always failing me. I think the Sigma was a sealed enclosure, I heard it at a shop called HI C audio in Leesburg Va. back in the early 80's. I thought it sounded very nice even without the omega sub, ended up buying the origin... | |

| Questions on Totem Hawks & Von Schweikert VR2 The Hawks are fantastic little speakers. I have not heard the VR-2 but have lived with the VR-1 and own the VR-4's. I would stick with the Totems, I also own the forests and my friend owns the Hawks. I think the Hawks have some magic to them that ... | |

| Magnepan 3.6r's - are they to much for my room?
