Dec 19, 2009	Speed strobe recommendation. What Tfkaudio says is true but the KAB does work very well.
Dec 18, 2009	what do you use to remove your tubes? The general rule of thumb is don't get body oil onto the tubes. I've always been able to get a hold of my tubes at the base and gently pull or rock them out.
Dec 17, 2009	Jumpers and attenuators on Magnepans....... Thomastrouble,I forget, what amp are you using with your 1.6's and how many watts per/ch?
Dec 16, 2009	Jumpers and attenuators on Magnepans....... I've tried several expensive (good quality audiophile grade) jumpers that I own with my 1.6's but I still had the best sound by bi-wiring them.
Dec 08, 2009	Solidsteel 5.5 rack: To fill, or not to fill? I have noticed a difference and fill my stands 100%.BTW; I also own a solidsteel, and use many starsound products.
Dec 07, 2009	Magnepan, How Low Can You Go...power-wise The more power you put into Magnepan the better they sound. I picked up a pair of Wyred 4 Sound SX-1000 monoblocks (500 watts per ch) and the dynamics of the 1.6 became excellent. I had been using a Krell xi 400.
Dec 06, 2009	Do you power your Class D amp on and off? I own Wyred 4 Sound and Channel Island monoblocks, and I leave them on 100% of the time unless I'm leaving for several days.
Dec 04, 2009	I need an amp, can any recommend? Wyred 4 Sound offers many.Huge bang for the buck.Used also on Audiogon.
Nov 27, 2009	Recommendations for a small tube amplifier? I realize its not what you want but I have a fully tweaked out Sophia Baby in great shape that I have in storage with original shipping box etc that Id let go for $500 plus shipping.I paid $1100+ for it new directly from Sophia.

Nov 26, 2009	Review: Monobloke Woodworking Maple Amp Stand Stand Does your five sided box silence the hum of your Topaz?How about a picture of the new addition?
Nov 22, 2009	Plinius SB-301. thoughts and opinions? The Plinius SB-301 is a good amp and can drive any speaker. I owned one a few years ago.Might I suggest you tale a look at Wyred 4 Sound products. There is a lot of bang for the buck there.
