A Shockingly Straightforward Query
You might also want to go to the Martin Logan Owner's website and inquire there.My choice would be the Carver amps.  I'm sure the Theta would work great, but I'm not quite sold on digital amps.I've heard the Carver's and they are nice.  I have own... 
Not Enjoying My Turntable
After "upgrading" my Sota Star Vacuum turntable with SME IV arm to a Triangle Art Maestro turntable with Zeus Cartridge, after the initial setup the needle skipped quite often and the turntable was set up using all the high tech gear by the manufa... 
Klipsch!. The worst speaker company, EVER?
Let me just say that there are lots of Klipsch bashers out there.  I laugh when people say that a particular piece didn't sound good.  When in fact, they are listening to the speakers, cables, amp, pre-amp, source, etc.  So if the other equipment ...

One Amp To ‘Rule’ Them All....

Repair of Goldmund 18.4 amp
Most companies will not send schematics of the equipment to people that are not authorized repair service centers for the very real reason that in lots of places, other will copy the design, place their own label on it and sell it under another na... 
What responsibility does a seller have to tell a customer an item has been serviced?
We are really getting caught in the tall weeds here.The only responsibility the seller has is to list accurately the condition of the unit.  Does it work correctly?  What is the appearance? costs? Whether a unit has been serviced or repaired?  Tha... 
Threat of fire from audio equipment
I'm raising my hand.I never leave equipment on 24/7.  In my opinion, that is asking for something bad to happen.  The only equipment that is left on is a refrigerator and you really don't have a choice for that one.I watched a tube blow in my Audi... 
Why the facination with integrated amps?
In my opinion, it really isn't sound quality that is the number one driver for people purchasing an integrated amp.  most people are not audiophiles and don't sit and listen to music for hours on end.  They have "lives" (notice the quotes?) and li...
