| Confession: I only like Norah Jones because so many others told me to Come away with me is definitely a standout album vocally, musically,song wise with audiophile production and sound , I don't think any of her other albums match it. | |
| Pass Labs Speaker Choices Magnepan 3.7i with Pass 250.8 XP 10 pre. There's a reason the 3.7i and 250.8 won best of show a few years back and I hear it every day. | |

| Rogue pharaoh II or Cronus Magnum III ? The Absolute sound just did a review of the Magnum lll and had great things to say about it and Stereophile likewise the Pharaoh ll. | |
| Recommendation for integrated amplifier for Paradigm Studio 20s v.5 Yes the Rogue Sphinx is getting great reviews. | |

| Subwoofer suggestions for budget system? After running out of funds I picked up a couple of Sony 12" subs for $50 each on Craigslist to pair with my Maggie 3.7i . I set the subs at about 50 hz and keep their volume low as not to get any boominess and run the 3 7i full range they integrat... | |
