Where would you go after Wilson WP7?
Sunnyboy1956,I listened to the Mira 2's when I decided to change from Wilson Sophia 3's. I didn't like the Mira 2's and decided to go a different direction. I didn't get an opportunity to hear the Avior's, because they weren't available when I hea...

Sunnyboy1956,Why did Rockport replace the Mira 2's so fast? 
What are the "new" brands in amps and pre-amps
I have Densen electronics...although not new, relatively unknown is the US. 
Component Impact
Edorr,What do you recommend under 5K? I will use the Apollo R as the transport for now, until funds permit me to upgrade. 
Component Impact
Steve N.,I would love to eliminate my preamp. What DAC with volume control do you recommend? 
Small but high quality integrated
DENSEN B-175 or DENSEN B-150 
Tube pre/power combo for Rockport Aviors
Jfrech,You have convinced me to listen to the Avior's...if they are "Significantly" better than the Sasha's I'm going to sell them and get the Avior's. 
Magico V3 with tubed amplification, will it work ?
I drive my Sasha's with Densen B-350 mono-amps(125 watts)in a 20'x 26' room with no problems. That being said, everyone has different taste and Sasha's may not be your cup of tea! Try to find a way to listen to the Magico's with your amps. 
Choice for wilson Watt/puppy 5.1 internal wiring
M_snow,Older Wilson speakers are bright...to my ears the current line-up isn't bright. 
New amps for Classe Wilson system
I recently asked a similar question and received the following recommendations: Cary CAD-200 or Cary SA 200.2. I haven't heard either amp, but I'm trying to find a local dealer to compare my Densen B-350's to the Cary amps. 
Another side of the "high end" from Wilson Audio
Jfrech,Have you compared Rockport and/or Wilson to Magico? If so, what are your thoughts? 
Rockport Mira not Mira 2 vs. Monitor Audio PL300
HukkfinnI haven't heard the PL300s or the Mira's. I have listened to the Mira 2's and thought the were good. Take what you read with a grain of salt. If possible try to audition the speakers...your ears are the only ears that count! 
What, if any, component to upgrade? Advice?
KevinzoeI struggle with room treatment, because I was told to do it right will cost between 5 & 10K. Do you think room treatment will improve every room? 
Artemis EOS Help
I owned Eos years ago and I connected them directly to my power amp. I believe the Eos that come with the bass module has an external crossover, not the Eos.
