Emotiva Tube Amplifiers Coming In February
This whole thread is based on "what the owner said", and that's fine, but I've found that what Dan Laufman says is usually the most positive outcome scenario which rarely happens with that company. Most new products they introduce are months/years... 
Finally upgraded to Integra 50.5
The Paradigms would benefit from a separate amp, in my opinion, as for the rest of the speakers, you could go either way. 
Class A vs. AB vs. D... can you hear a difference?
To me there's a chance that a class D would differ too much with what the Statement amp is doing with the B&W's. Class A is too hot and getting 200 plus wpc would be pretty rare and expensive I think. No point in trying to re-invent the wheel ... 
Class A vs. AB vs. D... can you hear a difference?
Bill, for the 6 and 7 channels, just effects, you don't really need another statement amp, but I'd use your 5 channel on the front channels for sure. You could get an Anthem MCA amp or even go to another brand I think. I'd suggest Parasound too, t... 
New Denon.....AVR 3100W
Nice, Denon makes good stuff. I've got a dedicated 2 channel system too and for audio I prefer it, but a good theater receiver can do pretty impressive things. 
Follow up questions regarding my NAD C375BEE
Update:It looks like the OP started a thread at Audioholics at the same time, it's about the NAD C375, Totem Ones as well with the NAD protection circuit activating too. Later on in that thread, he adds that his previous integrated, an Anthem 225,... 
cables vs wire?
Good post Nonoise, 
New Denon.....AVR 3100W
I've been keeping my eye on Denon, they seem to be at the forefront of the industry these days. I'm somewhat puzzled by the unhelpful posters above, strnggreen, the suggestions to try google are of course not helpful. When someone starts a thread ... 
Follow up questions regarding my NAD C375BEE
Wow, I was going to say the suggestion that the NAD can't handle the Totems is ridiculous. Something else is going on there. 
cables vs wire?
Brian, I was in the same boat as you when I began to suspect that speaker cables might not be all the same. I didn't want to spend a lot, and let's face it, the prices can be plain crazy. A regular on another forum I frequent suggested a different... 
Eichman RCA's - what makes them so good?
I'm about to take ownership of a set of Eichmann silver bullets, installed on a pair of RCA interconnects made by Morrow Audio. I've read great things about silver, and wanted to try it out. I just realized that Eichmann makes a new version, but f... 
The best speaker you ever heard?
The best speaker I ever heard? Well, there was this motivational speaker that made my jaw drop! 
12 volt trigger turns off amp
Try this, as I think the power switch has a mechanical "in" and "out" position. Simply with the amp main power switch in back turned to off, depress your front power button once. Then turn your power switch on again. Now hook up the trigger wire a... 
what amp under a grand?
Hehehe, I remember when I first saw the size of the box. They really ship it well protected andl insulated from the abuses of the shipping process. It's a great amp, like I said it's an end game purchase because you'll never want for anything more... 
Favorite Female vocals that give you goose bumps
The woman singing with Leonard Cohen in "If it be your will" is Jennifer Warnes, an amazing sounding voice. I'd suggest listening to a few of her songs on "Famous Blue Raincoat", including Song of Bernadette.
