Your thoughts on my quest for new speakers Gershman = good stuff! Nice choice! | |
most beautiful (looking) speakers I like the clean modern look of the Kef ls50s. Also the Blades in the larger floorstander category. Ohm Walsh fit in nicely most anywhere and do not draw any attention to themselves. I like that! | |
Affordable GaN FET amp from Peachtree Audio The Bel Canto c5i in my upstairs system does a similar trick as I read it ie digital signal driving the class D amp. It’s an “all digital” integrated amp. Lots of inputs including phono. Analog inputs are converted to digital. It’s been a keeper….... | |
