| custom built rack's. Agreed. I have the Salamander Synergy 40/20 for my secondary system and it is just fine. It all comes to about 400-500lbs. But I am keeping the power amp on the bottom of the bottom module and the UPS/line controller on the bottom of the top modul... | |
| Sim audio cd players any comments ? "The only reason I got rid of it was because there was no way of adjusting the individual channel levels for multi-channel music."That's what the preamp is for. ;-)Kal (enjoying the Orbiter) | |

| DVD/SACD with coax digital input? There are inexpensive, compact add-on decoders on the used market from Sony, Technics, Yamaha, JVC, etc. which were made during the transition to MCH. | |
| is music hall out of business? "I think what confused people by your simple answer of "Yes", was that the TITLE to this thread was:"Is Music Hall out of business"."I was not responding to the title but to the question in the OPs post which read:"does anybody know if they're sti... | |
| Preamp/Amp impedance mismatch No. It's just fine.Kal | |
| Velodyne SMS-1 is outstanding OK. Fine. I misread your original statement to imply that the null was moved to another frequency, not another location.Kal | |
