Thoughts on SS bass. Tube mid and high tube pre
Good point on the sub. The heils are a recent addition so I have listened extensively without them. I just run the Heils off the high / mid side of speaker binding posts with a 3.9 film cap in line.

My bdp2 does not have a USB out. Only a BNC and AES/BEU connection.
