| better the mc2500 for 2500.00 used I have a pair of completely restored and updated DQ-10's and I found the Belles amps to be a perfect match. I used a 150A Hot Rod and loved it. I never listened really loud. The 150 Reference, (same power as Hot Rod, but twice the current) or 350A... | |
| Audio Research LS-16 Mk2 vs LS-17 preamp I don't think that Audio Research would be the well respected company that they are, (or even still in business) if they produced gear that sounded the way you describe...I'm sorry you can't hear. | |
| Bridge NAD 4225 and NAD 2100? The NAD 4225 is a tuner ONLY. There is NO power output from it, so no it can't be bridged.The NAD 2100 has a bridge/mono switch on the back, so it can be made a single mono amp. | |
| Audio Research LS-16 Mk2 vs LS-17 preamp Rwwear...here we go again. I owned the LS16MKII for almost 2 years and found it to have excellent bass response and control, a wide and deep soundstage, open and smooth mids and just a wonderful presentation. I did use the 6H30 "DR" tubes in it, b... | |

| Help needed solving amplifier problem/mystery It kind of sounds like a bad component in the crossover of the right speaker. I had a pair of Linn speakers that did the same thing and drove me crazy. It ended up being a bad crossover. | |

You can get very high quality HDMI cables from Firefold or Monoprice for very little cost.I actually A/Bed the $7.00 Firefold HDMI cable to... | |
| Cartridge Question If the Ortofon Black is new, you need to give it at least 50 hours to break-in. I would even recommend close to 100 hours for optimum sound before you make any judgements.Make sure you have it setup properly, i.e. VTF, VTA, etc. | |

| Optimum Tracking force for Dynavector 20XL Sounds like the cantilever has collasped. This cart should be able to track a pretty warped record. Is the cart new or used? | |
| Zu Essence vs Martin Logan Electrostatics are hard to beat for vocals. That's one genre of music they really excel at. | |
| Toe-in or NOT toe-in ?? I completely concure with the above. I have however, never owned or set up a pair of speakers that didn't benefit from some toe in and I've owned and set up ALOT of speakers. YMMV. | |

| Optimum Tracking force for Dynavector 20XL 1.9 to 2.0 grams VTF and just a "hair" lower than parallel for the VTA. | |
| The audio research arc line- from top to bottom. "The LS-16MKII is one of the worst preamps I have ever heard."I totally and completey disagree! The LS16MKII is a marvelous sounding preamp. Very open and dynamic with excellent control. No, it doesn't sound as good as a LS26, but it comes pretty ... |
