| Need pre-amp help for Kappa 9 & Adcom GFA-555mkii Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the Sunfire Signature a Bob Carver design? I used the the Rsb 3 speakers with The Reciever by Carver (200 a side) and it sounded very nice. No harshness in the upper end. But you are right Bemopti maybe more than ... | |

| Vandersteen 3a sigs- Tube or SS Is the pre tube or solid state? If your buying from a dealer ask to borrow a set up of each and return the one that doesn't float your boat. Tell him you'll need at least two weekends though. |
