| Why do people say low power amps should be good for bookshelf speakers? I have found many of the Magnolia sales people to not know what they are talking about. This is why I would prefer to talk to a good independent audio dealer. | |

Seeing a label on a piece of equipment known to be prestigious does not mean it sounds better. Let your ears be the judge. For example I purchased a BlueSound Node 2i and the dealer talked me into adding a DA... | |
| What is an audiophile? Are you an audiophile? Russ69 you must be a genius. You hit it on the head. I really get turned off by arrogant jerks who think they know more than anyone on the planet who are quick to put someone down because they know they have a cheaper system. To me these are no... | |
