| MODWRIGHT KWA 150 GOOD AMP OR NOT? Yes, Yes, And Yes! To answer all your questions. Also, Modwright preamps go really well with this amp. The KWA 150 is a beast and a battleship. I have always loved the Modwright sound, warm accurate and tonally beautiful with great low end punch a... | |
| 6H30 tubes vs the others I had a BAT that used 6H30’s and of all the pre amps Ive listened to I liked its sound the least. Give me a 6922 any day, having said that I also like the 5687 thats used in early Modwright preamps and Manley labs Jumbo Shrimp. Matt | |
| New TT for ~$1500 IMHO The Rega P3 is the table in the $1000 range, Although I would immediately throw a Dynavector 10X5 on it and some groove tracer upgrades...like the platter and sub platter. Also a good solid platform for more isolation help really make the P3 ... | |
| Transparent Balanced Interconnects and their generations Stay away from these unless your system sounds terribly bright and you want to warm things up. Speaker cables with boxes on them I do not recommend anyway. | |

| How best to sell my dad's McIntosh integrated amp, CD player speakers? Above all else, you should contact Audio Classics in Vestal NY and purchase proper boxes (if you dont have any) to ship the McIntosh pieces.

| Dynaudio Sapphire - Amplifier matching "Is the power rating of the AVM´s sufficient to take the best out of the Dynaudios? "No they are not. The Dynaudio sapphires are incredible speakers but you will never know unless you feed them enough clean power. Dynaudios need a lot of power, al... | |
| Looking At CD Players Why are you needing to add a CD player when the OPPO 105 is one of the best universal players (it plays cd’s) ever made! And it has balanced audio outs already, connected to dual saber dacs! You cant get a better player unless you spend well over ... | |
