Canary Audio Tube amps
I had a pair of Canary CA-160 tube monoblocks several years ago. They sounded really good with my not so tube friendly Piega P10 speakers.One day an output transformer blew. Canary wanted almost as much to repair as the amps were worth. They could... 
Klipsch speaker choices
I had a pair of Cornscala "C" version a few  years ago. They were pretty good speakers, I did ALK crossovers, damped the mid horn and the rear panel. But there was still a slight "boxy" sound to the lower mids and upper bass. It didn't show up on ... 
Bluesound Node 2i vs Upscale streamers

Another recommendation for the Node 2i, I love mine.That said, if you really want to hear what any streamer can do, you should connect it via ethernet. I'm sure there is some creative way that you can route the cable so it's not so intrusive.  You...

Looking for inexpensive preamp
Tortuga Audio still sells an LDR preamp for 1200.00. If your system is passive friendly, you are not likely to duplicate it's performance for many times the asking price.Oz

spatial audio m3 or tekton perfect set
dvdbouletI bought the speakers on blind faith. But I really like them very much. Image depth is great and the bass is very articulate but has impact and slam when called for.I am a few hours from you in lynchburg va. and you are welcome to listen ...
