Voxativ loudspeakers and drivers
I heard the Voxative Zeth with the Voxative Z bass woofers in a dealer showroom and I made a note to self: buy these when we sell our house and move to a smaller place after retirement. They sounded unreally good. Didn't even bother to ask what wa...

Spend more money on the amp or the pre-amp?
"$800.00 get some very cheap stuff and pretend it sounds good.Good luck with that one!!"I disagree. The OP can get a very decent used integrated amplifier for $800. There's a Creek Evolution 50A for sale right now on A'gon asking $699 and I've hea... 
CJ ACT2 vs C2200
roxy54 answered your question but did you mean MC302? Just curious. 
Move router far from hifi components?
By the way it sounds counterintuitive (to me) to keep the router too far away from the audio gear if your audio gear includes a WiFi enabled streamer. Unless I'm missing something. 
Move router far from hifi components?
Regarding LPS, how do you folks make sure you're getting a compatible unit to replace the wall plug, e.g., what specs, which supplier, etc.? Thanks. 
Design a $60,000 Speaker - Start here
Isn't the cost of the drivers only 10-15% of the total parts cost of the speakers and the cost of the cabinets more than half? So its fairly simple to consider a $60K pair of speakers using only $8K worth of drivers. 
Aric Audio Systems Unlimited Preamp
Kenny, I didn’t get the remote option since I hardly ever use the remote on my current (SS) preamp. As a  complete tube newbie I'm curious about his design and the tubes he uses in power/voltage supply and all the reasonably priced 12AX7 tube op... 
Aric Audio Systems Unlimited Preamp
Kenny, that sounds like a great amp. I also decided to go with his Unlimited preamp. I traded off expediency (read impatience) for the color choice; gloss black vs. hammered silver, and should hopefully receive it in around a week or so. I'm hopin... 
power for mc452 and c2600
Wish all the best to the folks in the affected areas. Electronics and water don't mix well, and those with the giant Krells, Boulders, Levinsons, etc., will have to leave them behind...(little humor in case not obvious) 
I guess I have to sell my Tekton Enzos
missioncoonery keeps outdoing himself.... keep it up... let's see how low it gets.

"Mc to me means slow sounding."Sometime the warm and rounded sound is perceived as slow. That aside, I get the difference between warm and dry/cold sound but don't understand what is a slow or fast amplifier. 
Aric Audio Systems Unlimited Preamp
That's great Kenny. What speakers will you be using with the 2a3 SET amp? Your DIs? Aric's phono preamp looks great too. 
Aric Audio Systems Unlimited Preamp
Kenny, you're right, the Limitless looks like a top shelf preamp, just a bit too expensive for me. I found Aric by accident while looking for moderately priced tube preamps in the $800-$1000 range. Mapletree Audio is another outfit that I'm consid... 
We've owned B&W speakers since late 80's
Glad you and your family made out safely. Objects can all be replaced sooner or later. In regards to your audio gear, your biggest loss will probably be your LPs. Those will be hard to replace. One suggestion; when rebuilding the house, consider i...
