Thank you a lot for your response SL I 80 integrated amp with headphone jack. My output tubes are Svelvania 6550 quad. And I am running Cornwall fours. the other tubes are Genelex Gold Lion 6922’s, EH 6SN7’s, with some Tung Sol USA rectifiers ord... 
Using Musical Paradise SET amp with Klipsch Cornwall IV
Thanks Roxy. I agree  
Cornwall IV and subwoofers
SVS Micro 3000 good job. Easy to adjust. Solid 500W playing two directions. No more MUDDY bass because you can use the BEST gauge:YOUR ears, which differ from mine! Lol  
Tubes and GAIN on Cary Rom-808
Thank you!  
Headphones
I’ve been real happy Balanced DROP Focal Elex teamed up with DROP AAA 789 headphone amp… good place to draw the line.   
Klipsch La Scala replacement?
I elevated the Klipsch Heresy 4’s to TV Tray height… they have the same midrange horns and crossovers as the La Scalas … teamed up with the SVS Micro 3000, and my Cary Tube Amp. There’s just nowhere higher to go, for me.   
Power cable dilemma
Just get a UPS ADC from Amazon or Staples. You’ll see a huge difference. Then… you’re running DC from a battery. Clarity like never before. Any IC.    
I have found out why new cables and tweaks actually work!
Since signal is carried OUTSIDE the cable… voila!  
Experience with Cary CAD 808, "Rocket 88"
Jump up to the Klipsch Heresy iv. Rocket is the bomb. Made for each other. Triode mode. Distinction. You hear everything. Warmer.   
Which Solid State amplifier would you recommend for my budget?
I have the Nelson Pass Nakamichi PA –7 for sale. Hard to beat. Built like a tank. Sounds fantastic at 200 wants per channel. Nashville $1350  
Klipsch Speakers
After my third pair of Klipsch speakers…now Heresy 4’s… I can’t think any speaker sounds as good. Efficiency is the major player. 96 db sensitivity. Wow! I think they sound great…Spring-Summer solid state ( Marantz 2226 b), and my (Cary Rocket 88 ... 
Digital is far better than vinyl
Well … everyone is in their own quest. Every person actually HEARS differently in every different acoustical set up. So, what’s the digital- analog argument? I guess it becomes political …resembles talking heads on network news… all false… only wh... 
Preamps can color sound considerably. Surprising?
Yes. I am wondering…as I ponder adding my Marantz 7025 AVR to my lineup of : Bluesound Node and Tube Amp ( Cary CAD-808), will I “lose” anything? thanks from Nashville- Dave  
Klipsch Heresy IV - not what I was expecting
I am blessed to have mine mounted 2’ off the ground. The Heresy 4’s base sits inside the 3” walls of foldout tray tables, ever so perfectly… like they were made for them. Midrange is at ear level! Absolute bliss. Hearing music in songs that I neve... 
New Klipsch Conwalls (IV)
Yes. After selling Forte originals, I picked up Heresy ivs used, and broken in, 10/10 condition for $2100 pr meticulous sound… so distinct… so lucious and warm, and super clear at low volumes that you hear pieces in songs you know… that weren’t t...
