Proac D48R
Does this mean that ProAcs and Solid State amplifier don't go well together? 
Auris bluMe anyone?
Received the unit today. Did not waste time to connect to my system. Folkalley and Spotify sounds pretty good. There was more than enough gain to work with my TVC. A Logitech unit that I tried earlier did not have enough gain to work in my system.... 
Old friend looking for acoustic folk inspired music
tostadosunidos,I came across Milk Carton Kids when NPR played some music during an evening session. They remind me of Simon Garfunkel. Very good music. I am looking more into older folk like Joan Baez, etc. This genre is fairly new to me. I also l...

You are welcome.You can reach out to some of the users on Audiocircle.com, who actually own the BDA-3 and check with them. Seems like a promising product.

Speaker thoughts - ProAc D40R or Wilson Benesch
Toneaudio has reviewed the D48R very recently:http://www.tonepublications.com/MAGPDF/TA_076.pdf 
Passive Preamps
Agreed that passives are not recommended foe every system. You have to carefully put together a system so that passives can fit in. But a good passive can out gun an expensive amp in a matching system. That is my experience.

xonex77,Did you experience one recently? Curious because you revived an old thread. TVCs ROCK!! 
Whats playing on your system today?

OPPO BDP103 & DSD Files
elevick,I thought you have an Android/iOS app that would eliminate the need for a monitor to control the Oppo to see what you are playing or change playlist/albums etc. Is that incorrect? 
CD/SACD Player. I know there are many threads but I still would like help.
bubba12,Just curious. What direction are you going, if not a CD/SACD player.I am considering the Oppo 105d + Bryston BDA-3 in a few months.

Thank You for the feedback. It is helpful to know that, since I do not have a dealer in my area.

Rothwea,What amps were used to drive the D48R? How was the bottom end on these? I saw the spec and they say that the speaker is rated to 20Hz. Sounds too good to be true for such a sleek loudspeaker. 
Help with Cable selection
Agreed with adg101 - try the Clear Day loudspeaker cables first. Then the interconnects. You can also get Nordosts and others in the same price range and then compare them. Keep the one that rocks your boat and return the others. 
Help with Cable selection
I would very highly recommend the Clear Day speaker cables and interconnect. They would be a huge upgrade in your system. And they won't break the bank too.
