| Bp17 cube preamp Sorry but who were you communicating with? You say Vermont but Bryston is in Canada. Is your dealer in Vermont? Bryston is known for outstanding CS this doesn't sound like them. | |

| Grant Audio Did you try sending an email? The site looks fine to me in what ways did it seem out of date? | |
| How loud do you play music? Using a crappy Iphone db meter, which I've since deleted, I was typically listening in the 65-75 db range with occasional peaks approaching 80. That's in a practically nearfield setup in a small apartment. | |

| Replacing Vintage Spendors is not as easy as I thought Agreed if you like your speakers that much keep them, Spendor makes great speakers and the SP1 is a classic. If you must have something new check out Audio Note, the AN-J, my current speaker, is right in your price range. 93db sensitivity it's eas... | |
