I wouldn't judge anything till 4 or 500. I would run speakers on a solid state receiver 24/7, run amp while you can keep an eye on it, prima may need other speakers hooked up if you breaking in speakers in another room. Check with prima luna. 2 to... 
Well Tempered Labs Record Player, thoughts on a used one?
That's the newer version of record player with round motor old had square. I don't think record player sounds any different than classic except arm was a little easier to adjust. Once arm is set and goo is at right level your good to go. There dif...

If you use a passive conditioner your amp can go into it with good results most of the time. If not passive, power conditioner kill the sound with amp going into them, it limits current. Most of time it's best for amp to go in wall. A $10 to $25 p...

Open baffle suggestion is interesting you don't hear the box. Power conditioner was a good suggestion. If you can find a Tara Lab AD 2 or 6 grab it. It's passive and better than the Shuyata hydra 8 but not as good as the Running Springs Hayley I'v...

Sorry didn't read all your post now seeing your looking at single driver. I'm putting together a second system for blues and jazz now. I'm voicing it a little dark and slow. It's very enjoyable and plays blues well. Soft dome would work nice. If t...

I'm a drummer but i play, I've got an old Fender champ that sounds great though a PA. It's sometimes hard to get a true dirty/clean blues sound with hifi gear. I grew up on live blues and jazz born in New Orleans.Maybe you should look at and liste... 
TA-102 fo.Q Product from Japan "TRY These"
Ozzy did tape do anything on conditioner, I only have 2 packs, wondering if conditioner should be priority with my limited tape. Ever heard and seen a transformer vibrate continues on a pole it has to come in.

That interesting is the silver ribbon bright, im familiar with alpha core I have copper is some monitors( they are point to point). Couldn't  find them from dealers, ill look at little harder. The inductors in LSA's are cheap. If the silver knocks... 
Clarity CMR vs Jantzen Alumen Z caps
Thanks raul, I'm going to go ahead and order the Jantzen Alumen, they seem to fall more into what I'm looking for. They look small even though I've now moved the crossover to outboard on a 2 inch maple platform. If Alumen do what I think they will...

Clarity CMR vs Jantzen Alumen Z caps
I agree, I don't think I can go wrong with either, or mixing them. There much better than what I have now, it can only improve no matter what I do. I'm considering all Jantzen or combining, may not do all Clarity, who knows. Just want to order, ge...
