| Mark Levinson 20.6 Failing Beirut is a big city. There must be competent technicians there that can troubleshoot and fix electronics! Of the pair is one still working ok? That would be a big help in repairing without a schematic the defective one! | |
| Ultra high bandwidth amps like Norma Revo IPA 140 with horns? Just more marketing hype! Trying to gain an edge over the competition in a crowded field! | |
| Ultra high bandwidth amps like Norma Revo IPA 140 with horns? Spectral touted "ultra-high bandwidth" in their amps years ago. They are no longer in business! For audio this is NOT necessary!

| Ultra high bandwidth amps like Norma Revo IPA 140 with horns? I’d use a SS amp on the woofer and a good tube amp (PP or SE) for the mids/tweeters. And an active x-over to split the signal between woofer and mid/high drivers. A Crown x-over will work fine! | |

| Audio Note members re going from M3 Line to M6 phono Get a Schiit phono stage and save thousands compared to the cost of an AN. And with the hi-gain option on the Schiit you don't need an SUT. Stick with the AN M3 line stage! | |
| Help convince me to buy a vintage Mcintosh MC240/MX110z setup! Older McIntosh gear is always desirable and collectible! | |
| Help convince me to buy a vintage Mcintosh MC240/MX110z setup! I guess you'll need the MX110z then to drive the MC240. If the price is good for the pair, go for it! | |
| Are most recordings so bad it's not worth spending large on speakers? Recording quality has always varied from awful to excellent! Same for speaker quality! | |
