| integrated upgrade from Plinius 8200? The LFD IV is a sweetie. | |
| Which ARC pre-amp with ARC 150.2? If you want ARC, the LS15/16/17 pre series would be the best fit with the 150.2. | |
| finding the right speaker? Tons of choices. Totally dependent on your amp and room. It's all about synergy. | |
| What cd player to purchase for less than $1000? Stick with a dedicated CD player. The Rega Apollo is a great choice. The Exposure 2010s is also a nice piece. | |
| HELP with MAC MINI and PS DIgital III DAC HD Tracks uses flac files which i-tunes cannot handle. Not sure if Amarra works with flac - assume it does. I'm using PureMusic with itunes and I had to do a little fiddling with the settings in itunes to accept flac files. The amarra manual will ... | |
| Power line question Each circuit in your apartment will be 15 amps. If you determine the power consumption of your 2 amps and pre-amp - and they exceed 10 amps or so, you may have an issue, as the line you use will likely be shared with other stuff in the apartment.G... | |
| Help with DAC Going nuts I'm using the new Moon D100 - at $600 it's very clean and detailed - I use it for internet radio and ripped CDs. Very happy with it. The Rega is also supposed to be very nice at $1k, as is the Wyred 4 Sound DAC 1 at the same price. | |

| Best computer program for Apple IMAC I use i-tunes with Apple lossless for ripping and Pure Music software ($130) for playback. Very happy with it. | |
| Desktop Harbeth p3esr Amp Yes you will. I'm in the same situation and got a good integrated and DAC hooked to my Mac computer. | |
| Help in decision Arcam AVP's had some quality control issues, you might want to stay away from them. Not sure why you want a separate amp? The Anthem and any other decent AVR will have enough power for you.If you are looking at listening to music mostly, you might... | |
| connecting CD player to preampr? No, you are fine. As long as you don't use phono. | |
| I have a PC, and I love iTunes. What next? The sound card will make no difference if you are going to an external DAC. That's the point, to bypass the sound card. Digital or USB can sound great with a good cable. |
