New LFD Zero LE mkIV
Just curious. When you mention of "different bass sound to my audio space, and a different mid range", do you like the sound or was it something you did not hope for? 
Sony SCD-XA5400ES-Best SACD for under $10,000
Audioman58, good point in your post. I have never run my CDPs 24X7. My question is, will this not have adverse affect on the Laser - like shortening it's life unusually be the constant light/heat it emits?

Another vote for Quad L series. 
Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever?
Dave,I agree with you that with a resistor-based volume control, the extra voltage is discarded in the form of heat. In addition the more resistance that is applied by the volume pot, the more the signal is compromised – usually in the form of com... 
Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever?
Correct me if I am wrong. I understand that in applying attenuation to the input signal, the Lightspeed or any passive converts the extra voltage to current and lowers the output impedance, both of which help to drive the amplifier effectively. Th...

Parasound A21
Primare_cd31,Did you try the A21 without the Belkin? If the direct to wall sounded better, then you might need a non-MOV filter - like the Brickwall PW8R15AUD I have. 
2k$ speakers that meet my criteria?
Get a pair of Quad 21L2 and be done with it...besides saving $700 and putting it in your source/amp budget. 
Parasound A21
I had posted a reply earlier, but this thread got moved from reviews to Amps/Preamps.Why do you feel your system is not complete? Is it sounding thin or unpleasant? Are you saying that XLR is not allowing you to adjust Bass and Treble? Can you exp... 
I love my little Quad 9Ls;will I like bigger ones?
Your Quad 9L purchase is as "acidental" as mine. I went to audition a pair of Audio Physic Yara and requested the dealer to play the Quad 12L on display. I was so hooked to the music made by these speakers, that I forgot all about AP and ordered t... 
Anybody heard of Silent Wire?
Never heard them before...damn too silent :-))

Hegel Amplifiers
Talk2me,You have had experience with some of the very highly regarded amp. I believe you that the Hegel is a fine amp. But the A21 (given it's price) is no slouch either. Look at the comparison of amps in this mag: http://www.audiofidelity.no/coml... 
GIK vs. Real Traps?
Tholt,The prices at ATS acoustics are very good. How effective are they as compared to GIK or Real Traps? Thanks for the info.
