WA-Quantum GmbH's Quantum Chips
And all of this science fiction technology sells for a few bucks? Well, I guess you have to make a living.

I should clarify, I'm not saying that it won't change the sound as I have not tried one and therefore have no opinion that's worth anything on the sound subject. I do think that calling it "Quantum Material" is just some marketing BS though.

Isn't everything in the universe made of quantum material? What is "Quantum Material"? Quantum Theory is a statistical endeavor to understand matter/energy on a small scale. To me, quantum material is just a bunch of BS. 
Recommendations for good Class A SS Amp 100-200W
It was more likely your friends room, rather than the class of the amp used. 
In a quandry wrapped in an enigma
Zu Audio is having a closeout sale and pair it with a small tube integrated. Your choice on the other stuff ie. digital or analog, but that will give you nice sound and should be both of what you are looking for. 
Watts up with that?
Thanks Al, you're really helping a lot. So is everyone else too. It's probably what I expected, I'm fine listening to jazz and vocals at normal to slightly louder volumes, but when I want to play heavy classical pieces to stir me up, I should be a...

It could be the digital cable. That's why there are so many out there. I have even read that long ones sound better than short ones. Try some easy stuff first before you start soldering into the unknown. 
What is the best loudspeaker for a small room?
Montana Master Reference... Oh, wait... that speaker is a small room.

Why don't you just get a horse? 
Is my Pass amp overheating?
I would think small holes would provide protection as that is how a microwave oven glass door works. We see through the small holes and the waves can't penetrate the screen. 
C'mon name that amp ...please?
Thanks everyone, I will report back, but it may be a while as getting amps to audition in my home is not an easy task, especially since I want to get one used. 
C'mon name that amp ...please?
Guys,I've been switching back and forth between the ICE amp and a Cary SLI-80 integrated. They both have virtues the other one doesn't. This is probably an age old question that has been asked and answered a million times. I think I'm wasting your...
