speaker level sub hookup on class D?
Thanks to all who posted. Here is an update. I spoke with E.J. at Wyred 4 Sound and he told me to use a multimeter to measure Ohms at the subs speaker level input.1. Measure from Pos to Neg on eacdh channel2. Measure from the left and right neg. t... 
Need amp suggestion for PBN Montana EPS2.
Hey, I have Montana XP that I like a lot. I am powering them with a Wyred 4 Sound 500 watt, but actually 1,000 watts since the XP have a 4 Ohm rating. Very smooth with lots of detail. I was considering an amp change, but after a while I realized I... 
Need amp suggestion for PBN Montana EPS2.
Why not try one of the amps that PBN sells. They are beasts that cost a lot, but every once in a while one comes up on the Gon (like now) the Everest is on sale since 11/29 at a good deal. I am not the seller. 
Bel Canto Ref 1000MK2 or Wyred SX1000MK2
I remember the TAS review of the 2 amps. In between the lines it seemed to say they both were the same, but we all know the saying "Don't bite the hand that feeds you."

Wyred 4 sound MC 5
I own an MC4 (2*500 + 2*250) and I love it! It stays powered up all the time and is always ready to play. It uses only a little bit of electricity at idle and puts out a lot when needed. Aside from all the practical reasons to own one the sound is... 
Best used preamp for $1500?
You can probably get the Wyred STP-SE used for around $1500 or so. Easily everything you want in a preamp, except if you want tubes. 
6922 tube recommendations
Those $35 cryo'ed 6H23 tubes are a steal. It's only that the supply is greater than the demand right now since not too many people know of them. Soon when word gets out and the few ( <100 ) out there are gone, they're gonna re-sell for hundreds... 
6922 tube recommendations
Please look at the tubes being sold by member "Tcscata"6H23 are perfect for 6922. I use them in my tube buffer and they sound fantastic! I mean better than $200/pr tubes for much much less. Just check them out before you buy.

Do better ingredients make a better Ground Wire?
Ozzy, where do you place them as both leads are hot, only 180 degrees out of phase from each other?John 
Do better ingredients make a better Ground Wire?
Bud, I think it was stated before, but I don't understand why. I have a fully balanced amp (Wyred 4 Sound) that I run in full balanced from source through preamp to amp. Why will the GCs' do nothing in my case?

Well tell us, are you still running both XLR and RCA?If so how does it sound now? 
ADCOM GFA-5800 clipping
make sure if you use stranded speaker wire that there isn't one small strand touching another. I have seen this happen and the system will still work, but overheat the amp soon after.
