| Advice from Thor, AS, Vac owners Can't vouch for the Jadis? You owned it for almost a year. Anyway, it's sold -too bad, did you blow a tube or something. | |
| Mullards for Preamp? Exactly right you don't always see the flash, but the sound you are getting is what is intended. It's the British sound type people are generally referring to. That's why there is a high demand for those tubes. | |

| what amp will mate well with my gear? Keep the Aragon SS for the bass. There are a ton of used moderately priced and powered tube amps that are very good. I wouldn't go to a true flea powered SET unless your absolutely certain it will work with your array of mids and tweets the way yo... | |
| High Definition Radio I guess,- help me out here. The station says its Hi-Def but I just have regular tuners do I need to have a Hi-Def tuner as well? | |
| Best cd player for under $800.00 Second on the music Hall all the rest especially rotel sound like mud compared to the Music Hall. I don't know about the modders but forget any warranty. The Music Hall is super clean but not thin has a lot of presence and is simply a giant killer... | |

| Speakers To Use With McIntosh Receiver.... Klipsch are very synergistic, heritage types only in my view are worth listening to. The above mentioned Heresys are a great combination. You can find them all over and the price is variable $300-500/pair used they still make them but they are ver... | |
