Preamp connection to multiple powered subwoofers
I run 3 subs in my system. I run 2 off of my amp(speaker cable/hi pass) the 3rd I run off of my Unlimited preamps second set of out puts. Now,the 3rd HSU sub has a slight impedance mismatch. I run 2 rca's out of the pre to the 2 rca inputs on the ...

@aricaudio,thanks for the recommendation on the signal tubes. I just popped in a pair of new Mullard 12ax7's. I find them to tighten up the bass a bit,and bring the mids just a smidge forward. So far they seem to work nicely. Always trying to kick...

Congratulations on finding the right integrated amp!  
Aric Audio? First Watt? PrimaLuna?

Aric Audio? First Watt? PrimaLuna?
I run my Unlimited with a First Watt F5. I find the sound completely addictive. I unfortunately have never had the chance to hear Aric's tube amps,however,after living with his pre,I'm sure they're magic as well.

It’s that time of year- 2020 audio wish list
GIK acoustics is a highly recommended acoustical treatment manufacturer. My listening room has some very basic treatments now. A couple of absorption panels,and some very cheap foam.       For my limited budget,I feel I've assembled a pretty decen...

I plan on getting GIKed this year!  
What is the most FUN pair of speakers you've ever had and why?
I would say EPI 180's. Not great at soundstaging,but they could definitely rock the house,or my dorm.
