Synergistic Red Fuse ...
I'd be willing to bet Wolfie's system sounds really good!   Maybe better than some with fancy fuses even.

Looking for integrated better than my Rogue Sphinx
Easy.  If you like the Sphinx but just want more and better, move up to the Pharoah.  Its  fantastic sounding and very versatile product.  The Sphinx on steroids essentially. 
Looking to buy floor standing speakers in $1000 per speaker range.
For less than $1000, if conventional box speakers along the line of Harbeth or Spendor might float your boat, ask John Strohbeen at OHM about a pair of refurbed OHM H speakers. These are available refurbed and updated with modern technology for sa... 
Need Small Bookshelf Speakers With a Big Sound
After many years and having heard various setups both large and small, I am of the opinion that for a truly "big" sound, even in a smaller room, you need at least 8" woofers or larger and larger enclosures to match.In 1978, few serious speakers us... 
Would you go all 1 brand for electronics?
Why only one brand though when you can have many? It’s not polygamy. 😍 
Need Small Bookshelf Speakers With a Big Sound

Would you go all 1 brand for electronics?
I might. I have a Bel Canto C5i digital integrated that in fact mostly does it all in one shoebox size package. Just add sources of your choice and speakers and or headphones. 
Love for music shatter by highend equipment

Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
I’ve found that ability to sound good in rooms that are more challenging for whatever reason to be particular strength of the OHM Walshes. They can work surprisingly well close to walls and corners I find, as advertised, especially when compared t... 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
I'd expect original Walsh 4's to have more output capability and ability to deliver in a larger room.2.2000s not as much but be better in detail clarity imaging (result of newer 2000 driver) and maybe tonality top to bottom in a suitable smaller r... 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
That is some news. Would love to go but would be a challenge. We’ll see.Have never met John in person either that I know of, but would really like to. He was owner of Tech Hifi chain back when I worked there in college. That was where I had my fir...
