| The best speaker you ever heard? Avalon eidolon diamonds | |
| Personal amp evolution Upgraded from an Air Tight ATM 2 to a 300B. My last amp ever. | |
| How does a beginner turntable compare to digital ? I agree with many if the previous posts. Unless you have a good-sized record collection. This is not a great starting price point. The Apollo is a very decent player and cannot easily be beaten by a P1 with a cheap cartridge in your present system... | |
| Anybody own or hear the Wavestream linestage? I've heard them. Very promising indeed. | |
| A phono amp that beats the MFA Magus's phono? The 834p is a wonderful smooth phonostage. I have also found the Whest phono stages-especially used- are a great bargain -detailed,usical and highly revealing. The whest .20 in my opinion sounds better in my system than did the EAR.

| What can I drive w/ the 8wpc Air Tight 300B amp? Thank you for your responses- I am looking into Coincident, Omega, Quad, Sonus Faber, and Piega. I tried Klipschs- loud but too much of a horn sound. | |
| Quad 988 versus Quad 2805 I have listened extensively to both speakers and have an order in for a pair of 2805s. Even assuming that they are identical speakers- the 2805s are superior in their framing and bracing. It is like comparing Maagnepans that flop around on their s... |
