Headphone jack adaptor question.
Thanks to all for the great ideas. Now there's another question: How can I verify that the output RCA on my preamp is really line level and not speaker level? Is there a testing device? (Excuse my ignorance here, please). Elizabeth has me thinking... 
Review: Intuitive Design/Pitcher Sound Labs Summit PSL 624 Speaker
I haven't personally heard the Denalis, but the answer seems to be a huge, "yes" for them. According to Duane, Dale "invented something" to make the two six inch (I think that's the size) woofers in the Denalis go so deep. You may want to check ou... 
Headphone jack adaptor question.
Swampwalker,Thanks for the tip. After looking on the Manufacturer List, I don't see ASL. Is there some information that you could help me find? (Trying to decipher your handle, you don't work and/or live near the Everglades, do you?) 
Headphone jack adaptor question.
Elizabeth, (aka the "alien"-->your answer to the abduction thread was hilarious, btw!)Thanks, I won't. I had wanted to somehow put the Dodson DAC in the chain. Right now, the only jack is on the output of the Onkyo, which is ok, but would have ...

Krellm7,You may want to check out the two earlier threads on this topic as well. I started one of them. RCPrince actually did a test on the device, and was nice enough to post the results on my clock thread. Raytheprinter has a great post, too. 
Simple enough?
I'd like to see some pics too! It's fun to see all these great systems! Also, not to sound stupid (which comes naturally for me sometimes), but why is a 10 guage required for the power conditioner if it just feeds the CDP?

Which speakers?
I'd do exactly what Krellm7 said in both of his posts. That knocking on the cabinet is a definite must. You want to hear the DRIVERS, not the box rattling. It is worthwhile, imo, to go to a smaller dealer to get some advice, and spend a little ext... 
What's the deal with the Machina Dynamica Clock?
Rcprince,Have you compiled the results of your listening test? If so, what were the results?

Tvad,The best strategy is to contact Intuitive Design, either by phone or via email. If you email, put something about wanting to audition the Summits in the subject line, so that they don't think it's spam.========================================...

Best 10K Speaker
I should add, however, that I'm pretty sure the Avanti 3's don't go all the way down to 25 hertz. What you're asking for, at least without a sub, in that price range, would seem to be a rather tall order. I've heard that the Mahlers do go deeper t...

Jwalker,You may want to contact Jtcedinburgh, who has purchased a pair of Audio Physic Avanti 3 loudspeakers and is apparently very pleased with them.

OK Albert, just wanted to check up on you. Thanks for clearing that up. :)))))
