| Upgrading my integrated amplifier for my Magnepan 1.7’s No, do not keep the Peachtree integrated amp. Your speakers are just fine.

| All in One amp up to $7k @dxbwineguy Too bad about the Hegel H590, as I believe you would've been absolutely blown away by it!!! I use the Hegel H590 as an amp/preamp only. I use a separate outboard DAC. I strongly believe that the Hegel H590/H600 are one of the greate... | |
| Does anyone on AG truly care anymore about objectivity & sincerity of Magazine reviews? I’ve been reading and enjoying reviews from various high end audio magazines such as The Absolute Sound, Stereophile and other on-line sources for over 30 years, always under the realization that my own ears will ultimately be the deciding factor ... | |
