How Hot is Too Hot - Diablo 300 - Hell Hath Some Fury…!
I’ll bring the FW J2 into the main system once we get into cooler weather.  I do agree there is a big difference in heat from an amp low 70’s to upper 70’s.

Check with the manufacturer or dealer. 
The "Snake Oil" Trope
There are a couple points that have been brought up earlier,that I agree with 100%.  First,if you have not tried a product, other than your own personal bias,how can you come up with a meaningful opinion? Because it costs more than I can/will spen... 
Definitive Technology Speakers BP 7006 built in Subwoofer/Amp Question
Yes they are. For some reason,def tech had some issues with what seems like most of their sub amps. It didn’t seem to matter if they were powered subs in the speakers,or separate subs.   I do like the way their subs sound,but when they die again,I...

Very well put. I'm sure someone will chime in and chastise you soon.  
Definitive Technology Speakers BP 7006 built in Subwoofer/Amp Question
I believe these amps are a very common problem. Do a google search,and you will see what I’m talking about. Still a decent speaker for $80. I run def tech subs in my HT,and they have a history of bad plate amps.  
Anybody else waiting for GaN and Purify to have a baby?

Thinking Out Loud
I would leave the Pro-Ject DAC on all the time. That's probably why the manufacturer didn't put a power switch on it. Some electronics benefit from being left on,so they are always "warmed" up.  
Calling all (50 or less?) Falcon Kingswood Warren Edition LS3/5a owners...
With the right pairing of amp,and some proper placement in your room, these LS3/5 type speaker are incredible.  Now,this is my preference,but class A amp plus tube pre plus ls3/5 equals gourmet meal for the ears!

Anybody else waiting for GaN and Purify to have a baby?
pinwa,  Thanks so much for your comments.  I am very impressed with the soundstage of the F5,and even more so with the J2. To hear that the Peachtree GaN 400 has a deeper soundstage compared to the M2 is very impressive.  I have never heard the M2... 
If Power Cords Don't Matter...
^^^^^^^^^^^This!  
No response from seller
I’ve had similar experiences. In every case, the item was being sold to someone else. It still would be nice to receive some sort of acknowledgement. But,that’s the world.  There also is the chance that life situations have gotten in the way. I wo...
