| Looking for a Cd player/ transport. Great that it worked out for you! The Onkyo is truly well built for it's price point. Have you tried it direct to your amp to know how it sounds as a stand alone player? | |
| Supratek or Don Sachs - which way to go? Markus, congrats on your retirement! I am retired, it is a great life. Affords more time to muck around with audio concerns :-). | |
| Need to replace a BAT VK200 amp with a smaller and lighter but with equal sound quality. S.J., If you are considering a 60" table, why wouldn't your rack and an amp stand not fit side by side within this constraint? The amp on a stand would be lower to the floor, thus having less impact on the soundstage.Have your considered Odyssey a... | |
| Graduating to separates need help I believe at your price point, unless you require separates for system arrangement, you should consider an integrated amplifier. Many have onboard DACs. I would be more inclined to purchase a separate DAC. What sources do you input to your DAC? | |
| Supratek or Don Sachs - which way to go? Going forward, I would like to here more from owners of these preamps. I have been looking toward moving into a 6sn7 tube based preamp myself. | |

| Bookshelf Recommendations Well, given that your have a system and are not without music, you can afford to take your time. | |
| Pyramid speakers I also owned for a brief time a pair of Sequerra's 11s, don't remember designation, were box like and meant to be set on the floor and were angled upward. Sold them and understand they are still in service by purchaser. | |

Two aspects to be aware of is that it is very sensitive to input voltage and doesn't provide amy more power into 4ohms than into 8ohms (80wpc). It is a very quiet and clean sounding amplifier well suited to a passive pre and bes... | |
| Pyramid speakers I owned the Met 7, little 2-way, 1983-85. I am getting old, 1 year at a time. :-) | |
| Bookshelf Recommendations The Pangea 3 column speaker stands sell for $100 on Audio Advisor. There is a '300' in the model number. Paulcreed, If I were looking for another pair of speakers I would be interested in those Usher Be 718s. | |
| Looking for a Cd player/ transport. Hope the 7030 works out for you. Let us know what you think of it. Seems like a great budget CD player. If looking to purchase a CD player I would also give it a try. |
