| How to determine Preamp "Power"? VTL 5.5 vs BAT SE I have had a VTL 5.5 for a number of years, previouly had a 2.5 for a really long time, but have no experience with BAT, other than listening to friend's systems.

| Any GON members ever try Mye stands on MG-20/20.1? I have a set of Grant's black pebble finish stands on my 3.6R's and not only do they look great, but they make a huge diffence in sound. Bass really tightened up dramtically. Mine have brass spikes now connected to my carpet and there in no buzzin... | |
| FLAC or Windows Lossless for music archive? Mitch,I've been a Squeezebox user for quite a while now.

| Is it good to drive the magnepan 3.6? I drive my 3.6's with a McCormack DNA-500 at 500 @ 8 ohms, 1000 @ 4 Ohms. They(3.6R's) act like teenaged football players. The more current you feed them, the more they take and the better they play. I have fooled with other amps, but to my taste ... | |
