| Debate on a whole front end change @Rrog - No matter how good your front end is a lousy speaker will sound lousy. Many audiophiles like yourself know that this was an advanced speaker for it's time that still kicks butt even today. Between the two the clear winner is the front end.... | |
| Debate on a whole front end change @Dtc - You are correct, the Theta is a Pre/DAC in one and that is the big concern is that while both have DAC of similar performance like an amp has similiar wattage the big concern is the change in sound from the different technology used in both... | |
