Amp for Gallo Reference 3a's?
Monarchy Audio SE 100 Delux or the tube hybrid 160, either can be had for under $2000. I have used the 100's to drive WATT/Puppy 5.1's and they never ran out of power up to 100 db levels.

Virtual Dynamcis SPEAKAER Cable
Yes I do. It seems to take the edge off of digital recordings without losing any of the detail. Much more natural sounding with improved imaging and ambiance. I also find the differences between vinyl recordings and cd's to be much more distinct, ... 
Virtual Dynamcis SPEAKAER Cable
I have recently upgraded from Reference speaker cable to Nite series and the improvement was excellent in all areas.It seems as if the volume went up 3db, probably due to the ultra low noise floor. Bass is tighter and fuller with great definition....

Audible Illusions M3A update
I had my M3a updated in Sept, it took a little longer than quoted, approx 2 months longer to be exact. The improvements were worth the wait in my opinion. The noise floor is lower,the power supply is completely noise free. I used the Aux input for...
