| Krell KSA150 vs KSA100S & KSA100 for Inf Kappa 9 I wouldn't limit myself to Krell. Do some homework and look around. Krell has been having some financial problems lately. Levinson owners went through hell for a couple years when Madrigal was bought out by Harmon International. Same with Aragon o... | |

| "popping" when moving to balanced cables on Amp Disconnect the interconnect cables from your amp completely, leave the speaker cables hooked up. Now power your amp on and off. Is the pop still there? If so, the problem is your amp, if not, then your amp is fine, and the problem is with the prea... | |
| Looking for assistant to Aesthetix IO Sig Unfortunately, no, I do not. You may try e-mailing Albertporter or Jafox off-line. They are very familiar with the Io. I'm only familiar with tube problems, which from your description, it sounds like a tube problem, I've never owned an Io.Good lu... | |
| Looking for assistant to Aesthetix IO Sig Probably a tube went bad, it's time to start swapping tubes from one channel to the other until you find out which tube is the culprit. Of course you will have to swap the tubes in the power supplies too. Good luck,John | |

| the paradox of accurate speakers Accuracy is in the ear of the be(er)holder. :)Listening to music is a subjective experience, like drinking wine or eating ice cream. There is no 'accurate' in wine tasting or ice cream eating, why would you look for it in music?Cheers,John | |
| Bass--How much is too much? I guess I'll jump in here with a different POV. So far, everyone seems to like chest thumping bass. Now, I admit in my younger years, that heart pounding bass was a top priority. However, now midrange clarity is my top priority. My speakers go dow... | |
| Rowland Synergy IIi vs BAT VK51se???? Of these two choices, I would choose the BAT VK-51SE. It has a more powerful presence, with better tonal accuracy and soundstaging. The Synergy IIi is slightly more refined and does have more transparent high's.FWIW, I am currently using a pair of... |
