Preamp Out-Amp In RCA Jumpers for Integrated
I have replaced my wire bar with a custom Signal Cable Silver Resolution RCA to get a very good upgrade on overall sound. Cost me $40. Highly recommended. 
Neighbor Complaining...
Keep those Quads at least 2 feet from back wall and 1.5 feet from side walls. More the better in your case. The Quads have solid bass for their size. 
Promitheus Ref TVC and RWA Sig 30.2 Power Amp
Just now ordered the Promitheus Reference C-Core dual box with Elma switches. Have never heard one, but ordered it based on positive feedback/reviews from fellow audiogoners/asylum inmates/audiocircle pals. The estimated wait period in 3 weeks.Thi... 
Promitheus Ref TVC and RWA Sig 30.2 Power Amp
Thanks Clio09. I would go step-by-step. So right now I am looking at my existing NAD C352 to run as preamp for the TVC. At some point in future I will add the RWA power amp. 
Promitheus Ref TVC and RWA Sig 30.2 Power Amp
Reviving my old thread. Need to get a second opinion. My integrated amp's power amp section specs are as follows:770 mV / 20k ohms / 470 pFI am not techie and got this from NAD directly. Are these specs suitable for a Promitheus TVC?Thanks 
CDP's being dumped for hard drive driven units?
Not now, but when 1TB Solid state drives start selling for $100-$150...then maybe, but will still have a SACD/CD player. 
Hi End rack really deliver?
I cannot say about high end racks. But when I replaced my makeshift stand with a Salamander Designs 5.0 (cherry finish), the images stabilized and I heard a lot more clarity in the sound than I used to before. Note that I also have the Mega spikes... 
Vinyl vs. CD & HD from A.C.A...
I have never compared one to another. I own a digital system and am pretty happy with it. But I have heard a very expensive analog gear - Clear Audio+Piega+Nagras and the sound was impressive!! The gear totaled more than $40K.There surely must be ... 
Quad 12L at low volume
Mat,I am responding for passive version and have not heard the active ones. The Quads do require a bit of volume to sound their best. I do listen late at night and the volume settings are reasonable. On my NAD amp, the zero volume starts at 6 O'cl... 
Promitheus Ref TVC and RWA Sig 30.2 Power Amp
Hi Mariusz,Thank you for your reply. Honestly, I do not know if I require attenuators or not. I don't even know what that would do. I will surely look up some sites and try to understand that. Yes, I was looking more at the power-amp rather than t...

Promitheus Ref TVC and RWA Sig 30.2 Power Amp
Hi Mingles,The Bent also costs much more than the Promitheus. I heard about the buzz in AudioCircles forum, but there were ways to rectify it - and simple ones at that. Right now I cannot spend more than certain $$s on the preamp.But you got me th... 
Promitheus Ref TVC and RWA Sig 30.2 Power Amp
Dave,I get your point. But I will have to wait for at least a year to get the RWA, since budgets are routed elsewhere currently.Mrjstark,Yes, I m looking at the used market too. Can you please throw some light on the "more gain" part. When it come... 
Promitheus Ref TVC and RWA Sig 30.2 Power Amp
Dave,Thanks for your response. How does the Bent Audio TVC compare to the Promitheus? I have heard good things about Pomitheus. That was the reason I thought I could replace the NAD's built in pre-amp section with it and then eventually use it wit... 
LFD mkIII vs Red Wine Audio 30.2
Panu21,What are you trying to do? Tempt me to get the LFD? Just kidding. Good to know that the amp has surpassed your expectations. And don't worry, you have more experience than me in hi-end amps. I am so tempted about this amp, now that that you...
