| Would my system benefit from cable upgrades? +1 riley and soix. Research options for room treatment. Regarding cable upgrade I would focus toward the interconnects starting between sources and amplifier. Stick with quality copper. Which audioquest speaker cables are you using? | |

| Seeking advice for speakers for my Family Room Seek speakers that are on the warm side, somewhat rolled off on the upper octave. Absorption panels need not be expensive.

| Maggie 1.7i vs 1.7 (what was changed??) @jjss49 Which of your amplifiers are you using to drive the 1.7is? | |
| China built tube amps @falconquest The dealer you spoke with seems to me one I would not wish to deal with. I agree with those saying country of origin need not be the only criterion for product selection. I would want US based service facility for non domestic product... | |

| Vincent integrated amplifiers. I'd be grateful for your experience. I also once own a Vincent integrated. The SV-226MK, a 100wpc model. Loved that amplifier.
