"One Box Solutions" - Suggestions ?
sfar has a great solution, the Moon ACE. The price has just dropped to $2,900.00, and I've been told by Moon that they will upgrade to MQA in early 2018. I'm buying one from a guy in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, where I used to live. Check him out. His...

Thanks. I'm not a big bass person, so I'll see what they sound like and come back to your advice, if needed. What I really need to know is whether the ACE will drive the 936s well and get the most out of the 936s that they're capable of. If anyon...

Focal Aria 936 vs 926 bass response
I'm considering the Focal Aria 936s with the Moon ACE. The ACE is 50wpc at 8 ohms. I've heard that the 936s require a lot of power to drive them well and sound good, despite their their high sensitivity of 92db. Can anyone tell me wheth...
