Phonostage/preamp recommendations. Parasound JC3 Jr.?

Not streaming yet and considering Bluesound Node 2i? What you need to know.

Monster speaker cables 2.2s
People who think wire is system dependent have only heard inferior wire. LOL Wire that is "system dependent" is by definition not good wire.  ROTFL 
Monster speaker cables 2.2s
Cables are VERY system dependent.  Try them and see, (or hear) what they do.  If they sound good to you, that's all that matters. 
Monster speaker cables 2.2s
