| Warm-up time for amps and preamps I have a class D amp. The NuForce technician told me something very interesting: He said it's not good for a switching amp to be on without being connected to a running pre-amp with a source playing. Therefore, when warming it up I have the tune... | |

| Is it a OK to leave tube pre-amps powede up 24/7 I've notice even if I leave my pre-amp on all day, it takes about 30 minutes of playing music (especially the phono side) before it really kicks in.I see no point in leaving it on all day now | |

| Platter for Rega RP3 turntable Another improvement I was thinking of was the Rega TT PSU.But at $400, it gets a little expensive.Also, how much better can the sound get!?P.S. I ordered the Achromatic platter mat. |
