| Audiophile pre-amps with home theater pass through I'm currently using a Classe CP-60 which has this function. The CP-60 model is discontinued now, but you should be able to get one for less than $1500 used. | |
| Home Theater? I agree with Bld63. I use a 2 channel preamp with SSP pass through. I have a Denon receiver for surround only. I'm much happier now then when I was in the high end SSP market.Regards,John | |
| Too much power? You can never have too much 'clean' power, IMHO. As Newbee mentioned, almost all speaker damage occurs from an underpowered amp being driven past it's power ratings into 'clipping'. Go for the 4004 mk II, it's a nice amp.John | |
| Integrateds - Revisited Yet Again Check out a BAT VK-300xSE or a Jeff Rowland Concentra II. I haven't heard the Moon I-5, but I have heard the integrateds from Krell, Classe and Levinson and the Rowland and BAT beat them all. I would go with the BAT myself, although the Rowland is... | |
| VPI SAMA Setup: Help please? Yes, mine has a flywheel, it came on the pulley shaft. I did buy mine used though. VPI's directions are not good, but they are resposive to e-mails and phone calls. Copy and paste the link below for contact info.Regards,Johnhttp://www.vpiindustrie... | |
| VPI SAMA Setup: Help please? I bought a HW-19 mk III with SAMA. When I was setting it up, I noticed that there was some wood ground down in the rear left corner of the wood base. It looks like a dremel tool or something was used to do this, as the notch was smooth and round. ... | |

| Power Cord Recommendations for Cal Audio CL2500 I second the Shunyata Black Mamba. I have one on my Sony DVP-S9000ES and it really lets it sing. | |
| I've a confession to make don't tell my wife Whew! When I saw your topic line I thought maybe you had discovered the joys of the port hole. Hey relax, I'm just kidding. I can't believe you went a couple of years without using them. I tried the on the first pair of speaker I bought that came ... | |
| Review: Audio Magic Matrix AC filter Warren, thanks for the review. It's a shame you never had the chance to try the Stealth with a better power cord. It would have been an interesting comparison to have listened to a Stealth with an Elrod 3 Signature versus the Matrix with a lesser ... | |

| Power and Pre amp HELP & Recommendations needed. I would check out a top shelf integrated at that price. I would recommend the BAT VK-300xSE or the Rowland Concentra. They both give you 150 wpc. If you need more power, then I would go seperate. It is not critical to stay in the same family for s... | |
| Amp choice for VA Mahlers Quigly, there are many good recommedations here. I currently have the Strauss being driven by a Threshold T400 with great success. I do not beleive, however, that you will get the full benefit of the Mahlers or a new amp while using a SSP. If you ... | |
