DAC advice for the non-tech-savvy I suggest you send an e-mail to Pacific Valve&Electric and a second one to Steve @ Empirical Audio asking for their advice. | |
Biamping, bass and amplifier type. Quality standmount speakers plus quality tube preamp/amp and quality sub float my boat.I used to have a pair of Wilson Cubs (60Hz to 25kHz)on sand filled Sound Anchor stands driven by a 110 wpc Sonic Frontiers tube amp and matching tube hybrid pre... | |

Center channels: why only horizontal arrays? There are some good stand mount speakers that are designed to do vertical or horizintal. Like the now discontinued Wilson Audio Cubs. In better times, I owned 3 Cubs: 2 on stands for left and right fronts and the third sitting horizontally on top ... | |
