Let me end the Premp/Amplifier sound debate ...
@itsjustme, I made those specifics known on the 1st page of this thread, but unfortunately no one pays attention to me anymore. It does seem ridiculous to me to listen to YT videos for the purpose of trying to decipher differences between gear, bu... 
Cabinet resonance problem with Marantz MM9340 amplifier
Do you feel you can pop the cover, and while it is powered on, determine if there is a particular area within the amp, the vibration is coming from ? If you can, I believe I can help you. Where are you located ( city ) ? According to the web, the ... 
Chip amps, not spoken about much, except on the diy sites.
As stated by @jasonbourne52, the Topping PA5 is a chip amp, and since I have been listening, they are not just for low end systems.  
Atma-Sphere Class D getting some love
Congrats to Ralph. I am sure they work with tube preamps, as Ralph would not have it any other way, ime.

Correct spelling : Hirsch, and tested and reviewed at Stereo Review, not Audio. I immensely enjoyed reading him, as I did Harry Pearson, and some others. JH was an electrical engineer, and dedicated his life to the audio community. Look him up. Gr...

What I am finding amazing with this amplifier is, it does not have a sound, or a personality, of it's own. It truly takes on the information fed to it. Every amp I have ever owned, showcased both. But this amp.....NEUTRAL. It has transient speed u... 
For all you Bose 901 Haters!
Ever stand in front of a drummer, and listen to the immediacy, the impact and those dynamics, while at the same time, feeling it too. You can get this with the 901s. Hang them down from the ceiling; a flat, solid wall behind them; follow every set... 
McIntosh -- good for show, not for sound, says dealer
I never said " every " Mac owner was, as I indicated " many ". However, every Mac owner on this thread, in one way or another, continues to defend the brand, with obsessive allegiance....I would guess, that if that clock and sign were offered to M...

Many of my Mac friends and clientele own lots of these Mac signs and clocks, as they are obsessed with the brand.

I like Mac gear, as they offer the owners happiness, and this is what this audio thing is all about. When I sold my 2105, I had it tested by a technician ( I now use another tech ), and it met every electrical parameter, as it was worth the bench ... 
ID Vintage Klipsch set?
Photos not coming through to me. Cannot decipher based on the numbers, although W/O indicates Walnut Oil. A Heritage model for sure. Khorn, Belle, Lascala, Cornwall and Heresy. Look these models up on Google ( example : Klipsch Cornwall ), and you...

McIntosh -- good for show, not for sound, says dealer
In early 2017 I purchased a Nuforce STA 200, based on a mag review. After owning it for a month, with 24 / music running through it, I sold quite a number of power amps, locally, from my collection. A Mac 2105, with the wood case, was one of them....
