Ethernet connection for best sound quality

Wall outlets

Best amplifier for low to moderate listening levels
Hegel H590 integrated amp!!!  The extremely high current, high damping factor, beastly, superb sounding, Hegel H590 drives my inefficient Revel Salon 2 speakers beautifully at low, quiet, midnight listening levels with authority.     
Speaker that are 'KEEPERS" for the long haul!!!
Steve59.  It's true.  The Revel Salon 2 speakers are notoriously inefficient and hard to drive to their fullest potential.  But, once you hook them up to the right amp, you're in absolute sonic heaven.  My Revel Salon 2s are in a not so large room...

Buying Used Equipment on the Internet
I've been purchasing used high end audio from Audiomart, Audiogon, HiFi Shark, etc, for many, many years (over 20 years) with extremely positive results.  98% of my current rig was purchased through one of the well known used high end audio websit...
