| Looking to upgrade my preamp, suggestions? Congratulation on the McIntosh. In your budget, I would go for ARC REF3 or EAR 868. I prefer over MW 36.5 especially one without an external PS. | |
| Can Pass XA60.8's drive Revel Ultima Salon2's without their tongues hanging out? If you're keeping the amps when moving to a bigger home, get a 300.8 or 160.8. I would never pair XA60.8 with Salon 2'sThe analog is like putting around in the city, don't need much power but a V8 will feel different and has more control than V4... | |

| Chord Dave or Ayre QX5 Twenty DAC??? Just to show there's no best but just personal preferences / system synergy. Used my Dana USB cable on all DACs ( note after the shootout, Mike mentioned he likes the QX5 with another USB Why? Should use the best matching cable?I had a La... | |

| Pass Labs XP-30 vs Krell Evo 202 SFL-1 was my 1st tube preamp and then slowly upgraded to Line 3. Actually SFL-1 and SFL-2 were pretty good compared to competition at the time. My biggest mistake was tube rolling and upgrading Line 3 and Power 3. Line 3 uses 10 6922/e88c... | |
| Pass Labs XP-30 vs Krell Evo 202 Ok, I'm going to get laughed at but you'll never know unless you try it. I know of someone that replaced his Pass XP-30 with a Linear Tube Audio MZ2-S designed by David Berning and says it's better. You will laugh because of the huge difference ... | |

| Bi-wires links for speakers ? Most of the high end amplifiers do not have bi-wiring option and that’s saying something about the questionable reliability of bi-wiring method, Ever heard of spades + bananas? Basically doubling the number of conductors so I don’t understand ho... | |
| Bi-wires links for speakers ? The only thing better is two single runs of speaker cable from the amp. end to the speaker terminals. My amp. will accommodate two runs with 4 terminals on the amp. end. I have yet to try it due to the cost of the cable but I do intend to try i... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Per your third paragraph, I think the materials inside the wave guides are better as you go from CT-1 up the line. I think it is more than just the size of the wave guides. Per a review from 6moonsOf course it's better LOL! | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz @misterbritt I asked HFC last week and they decided not to offer additional waveguides to Reveal speaker cables.Reveal connectors are passive, not magnetic, so only difference between Reveal and competition is the magnetic dead weight on the cable... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz I was thinking number of waveguides is a function to length of the cable. Basically longer the cable more waveguides, otherwise shorter cable has superior performance??I was going to try Reveal speaker cables with option to add additional wavegui... |
