Rotel RCD 1072, As a CDP,Transport or with LinkDac
CC, I own a 1072 and love it yet it seemed to not be able to replicate piano and female voices as well as I wanted it to. It does do very well on the pipe organ pieces that I play however the tradeoff is the piano is now in the room and I simply s... 
Preamp for Classe CAP-150
Ian, I am currently using two CA-150's as monoblocks through a CJ 14-LS and am quite pleased with the combination. Prior to this I used a Classe CP-50 and was happy until I tried the tube preamp. Also, I have tried the Benchmark in my system and w... 
Does classe amp run very warm even when idling?
I own two ca-150's and they never have run hot even after hours on end. I would suggest that you contact a local dealer and have them send it back to Classe. I have run mine in stereo and as mono's. Steve 
One Amp Stereo versus Two Amps Mono
Matt, I started with one Classe amp. I talked to the fellows at Overtures Audio and they recommended two. I also listened to a fellow from Texas and he agreed with the concept of two amps since he and Overtures claims they are built for mono. The ... 
2 Classe ca 100's vs 1 Classe ca 200 ?
Samski, I own two CA-150's that power Aerial 8's and have found the match to be very satisfying. The folks at Overtures Audio and a fellow from Texas ,Jeff Wiseman, made the suggestion and the results are that you never run out of power and the dy... 
Integrated for my Aerial 7B's ?
I realize that the Aerial 8's are bigger but I run them with two Classe ca-150's in mono and they do sing. The staff at Overture's Audio claim that more is better. I was running them with one CA-150 and the sound was better than my old system howe... 
Running CA Classe 100 or Parasound 1500 in mono
T. I own the Aerial 8's and run them with a pair of Classe ca-150's in mono. The power gave me better bass response and better overall sound staging. I listen to classical, folk, jazz, electronic and rock. The clarity of the sound was improved dra... 
How do you troubleshoot a pair of Aerial 10Ts?
I currently own the Aerial 8's which are quite similar to the 10t's. I drive the speakers with two Classe Ca-150's in mono and found that they love power. They come alive at low and high listening levels. The bass is tight and impressive. Good lis...

Classe CA200 vs CA 100?
Brett, Your speakers like a lot of power and I have a pair of Aerials that enjoy the same and I found that running Classe CA-150's as monoblocks has made a significant improvement in bass response and upper end reproduction. A friend has your spea... 
Classe Amp CA-201 or CA-301
The choice of amps is fine but I would consider buying two amps by Classe and use them as monoblocks. I am running two CA-150's for my Aerial 8's and am quite pleased. The response time and the control of the bass is wonderful. Steve P.S. The choi... 
Two 210 x 2 amps or One 500 x 2 amp.....
Dan, I own the Aerial 8's and run them with two Classe CA-150's in mono and have found the improvement to be substantial over using one amp. The soundstage and the control of the bass warrants exploration of two amps. Of course, the cables are ver...

Dupont Corian for Isolation
My experience with Corian has been to reduce the feedback and vibration inherent to a piece of furniture. I am restricted to certain formats due to being married. The racks that are designed for good stereo equipment is not in the cards. I have tw...
