| Gain on preamplifier Thanks guys. I thought there was a transposition between descriptors and specs. Thanks for the conformation on my assumption regarding the 20 dB gain. I was thinking about calling Jolida, however looking for support here. I may not bother. | |

| Amps Under $1k to Pair with ELAC and Klipsch Speakers? Millercarbon, I believe if you reconsider the point I made, you might find that we are in agreement. My system is structured with the believe that all components matter and considered equal regarding the sonic outcome. | |
| Amps Under $1k to Pair with ELAC and Klipsch Speakers? Soix makes a good point. It never gets better than the source. | |
