Help: good value amp for Epos M12.2s?
If you are going for a smooth even sound, a classical or jazz listener, I would check out the Marantz PM 7200. The Creek would be better if you like a little more speed and punch. 
BAT VK-75 SE Tube Amp and Dynaudio Confidence C1s?
The B2 integrates very well with my WB ARCs and I am sure anything else. I like the front firing woofer since it makes it easier to place the sub and it also has a smaller footprint. The thing that you are never prepared for with the rel is how mu... 
BAT VK-75 SE Tube Amp and Dynaudio Confidence C1s?
My room is small only 13 X 14. I do use a rel B2 which adds depth. The ARCs on their own are great. They are extremely coherent and work well at low and high volume. Great built and the least boxy sounding dynamic speaker I ever owned. Mono blocks... 
BAT VK-75 SE Tube Amp and Dynaudio Confidence C1s?
I use Wilson-Benesch ARCs with BAT. Great speakers that are easy to get into small spaces. Most of the WB line works in small spaces, not a small sound. 
What cables are available for Naim Stagline to RCA
I've used Audioquest Cheetah and Nordost Blue Heaven. Both Nordost and Audioquest will work up a din to RCA cable (both high quality terminations). Nordost probably does it more regularly and they stock din connectors. You'll need to choos what yo... 
Best Integrated All-tube Amp?
I've owned the Rogue Tempest and loved it. One of those components I wish I still had. 
AQ Anaconda to Nordost Red Dawn
Nordost would be the ticket, well above your other choices. 
How do you hook up 2 Amplifiers? Linn Newbie
Could the amps be run in Mono?? then it doesn't matter that you have a single set of binding posts. Run one amp per speaker. ,,,The LK400 is a biwire cable. Don't see how that helps. 
Beginner Amp for near or under 200..
I like the Marantz PM 7200. You could see a used one for 300 or so. Worth the extra $$$ over your budget. Great amp especially for classical and Jazz. 95 wpc in a/b, or 25 watts in pure calss A. Smooth and even tonally. Others might be better for ... 
AQ Anaconda to Nordost Red Dawn
I don't think anyone can give you a recommendation on these without knowing your system and listening biases. They are all obviously very different. What is your system and what is important in your listening? 
BAT solid state or tube?
Thanks for your insight and advice. 
Speakers for BAT system?
I have a 31se and vk-250. Absolutely love Wilson Benesch speakers (I have Arcs with REL sub). They are coherent, still detailed , with great power. The most unboxy sounding box speaker available. 
BAT to BAT - What's Best?
I have all BAT gear and very happy using Audioquest DBS cables. Depending on your budget you can go with Panther or Cheetah. I use Cheetah and find that it has detail, texture, and still has a very even tonal balance with high end extension and ba... 
BAT solid state or tube?
Tuboo, I have a VK-250 and love it. I was considering switching to the vk75se for the reasons you mentioned. How would you compare the frequency extremes? Also, in terms of heat how do they compare. My 250 can get pretty warm just even at idle. Th... 
Tone arm cable for SME V
I highly recommend the Audioquest Leopard. DBS, pure silver in teflon. The DBS really makes breakin a non issue and is is especially difficult with a phono cable. The sound... absolutely coherent with depth and a great sense of space. Also, toneal...
