| Does the amp wattage make a big difference? You could get another VT-100 and do a verticle bi-amping scheme for less money than selling your amp and getting the 200. Also you could check with Audio Research about converting the 100's to mono. | |
| Can 2 preamps go to one amp? You can't hook up two preamps to an amp without an A-B switch. The preamp will take the path of least resistance and feedback into the other preamp. You should be able to find a high quality A-B switch, maybe even and automatic one. | |
| What are the perils of shipping worldwide? I used the US Postal service to send a Marantz amp to China with no problems. I was paid first of course. Paypal is good for that. | |
| Stereo amp to drive one center channel speaker? Most modern amps can be played without a speaker connected. But some amps require a load or damage can occur. This is especially true for tube amps. You can put an 8ohn resistor across the unused speaker terminals if you are not sure. | |

| Perreaux P250 Problem The only place I know is DW Labs in New York. We had one repaired there a few years back. You may check with Audio Advisor since they are the Perreaux reps in the US. | |

| How to find vinyl? I go to the Atlanta record show every two months. There is plenty of vinyl being sold for a dollar each. Some are still sealed. Of course, there is an abundance of expensive rarities also. And I visit a friend's store in Chattanooga called Chad's ... | |
| What is the cause of Mosfet Mist or Veiling? You could be right, I'm no expert.Robt. | |
| What is the cause of Mosfet Mist or Veiling? I prefer bipolar amps but have heard some fine sounding MOSFETs. The main thing that I have read about MOSFETs is that they are not linear and need much regulation to make them sound good. | |
