The bid thing with equation speakers in a they are no longer produced so don't pay much if you find a pair. They were not good on my mark Levinson 33h just not enough load for the amp. They are beautiful on tubes. They were beautiful on the moon w...

Well  I am quite different than the above poster but I think the difference is that I like harbeth speakers but I have a high power solid state amp.on them. A mark Levinson 33h. Harbeth s like lots of power. So I also have a pair of slh5 speakers....

CDs And Green Markers. Please Don’t Laugh.
Try washing a CD as well. Some have more release agent on them than others washing them makes a difference as well.   
Dedicated Circuits - Subpanel importance?
My thoughts.   First off if you are going to run more than on dedicated circuit make sure they are both on the same side of the 220. Of not it sounds bad. I have seven dedicated circuits in my main listening room. The other things I did was they...

Suggestions: Interesting small speakers with flexible placement
