| Granny ring, Jetrexpro, all Grannyring,I was just following your lead and as usual it turned out to be a stellar move. Have you read some of Jeff Day's latest blog posts? Some good info on his USB wire experiment. Plus he bought Maestro Leopold Stowkowski's Altec Voice Of Th... | |

| desktop speakers for low watt tube integrate I'd likely go with Omega, Blumenthal, or Tekton small desktop speakers, single driver, coherent sound...for half your budget. Long break-in, but then magical near-field. Best, Rob | |
