| Maggie 1.6 - Best Amp? Thinking about tubes. You're going to need something pretty beefy, they're not an easy load. Saw a pair of VTL 225s advertised here yesterday, that would be a sweet match. BAT or Audio Research monoblocks would also be great. It all depends on your budget. Many solid s... | |
| What detergent to clean Zerodust. Are these two basically the same thing? Thanks,Spencer | |
| Best overall Speakers for $2,500.00 or less, New? Hoenstly,I don't think it exists. You could spend double that and have a short list of candidates.

| Any Experience with Audio Valve? Trelja,Happy to expand offline on this, but let's just say that I'm not surprised by your comment, and that he's not "my boy", just someone who might have opinion on the question asked by Coco. Cheers, Spencer | |
| Amplifier for Von Schweikert 4.5? Very synergistic combo. I used to own both. This combo was on display at one of their top dealers for a long time. These have been displayed at previous shows as well, although now BAT is showing w/others. | |

| need some suggestions for Acoustics Blues Early Tuna features harmonica, fiddle, and great bluesy guitar work. Live at Sweetwater I & II are very good sounding for digital. Spencer | |
| XRCD If you could order 3, Which ones? Bill Evans - Everybody Digs Bill Evans is a great one. | |
| Any Experience with Audio Valve? David at David Lewis Audio in Philadelphia raved about them when I was browsing in his shop a few months ago. Sure he'd be worth talking to about them. He often runs big ads in Stereophile. Spencer | |
| Best Pre/Pro for 2 channel I used to own a Classe ssp25. They go used in your price range. It was great for music, and worked well for HT. I recently downsized to a NAD receiver, which is adequate for film, mediocre(relatively speaking) for 2 channel music. If I didn't have... |
