| the cheapest amp to drive watt/puppy 7 I can attest to the fact that the Audio Note Meishu amplifier is among the best I ever heard but at (an extremely robust) 9 watts you would not rock out with the WPs. Every post I ever read on the subject seems to agree they are not especially eff... | |

| What is your favorite recording with a quirck Cowboy Junkies original Trinity Sessions you can clearly hear subway trains rumbling in the background during quiet passages. | |
| Need Some Help Choosing an Integrated Amp It seems with those 97db speakers you could buy a 300B based SET like the Audio Note Meishu (I just bought one myself) and live happily ever after. This amp has a giant 3D soundstage, terrific slam (9 watts!) a seemingly endless amount of detail a... | |
| Banana plugs, Spades or a little of each? the amount of pressure is what determines a good connection, the size of the area does not determine a good connection according to an article I read many moons ago... | |
