| Solid State amp with wide soundstage tweek,tho i love my ec amps, i'd also consider the pass amps, if the extra scratch inwolved is not a problem. of course, w/a budget of only $1k used, this pretty-much limits ya to the aleph-30, which means ya need more efficient speakers...doug s. | |
| VMPS RM-40 - Anyone Heard tweek, i suggest emailing brian cheney directly; he's quite forthright w/his responses. i would suspect that in this case, the added quantity of drivers allows a higher spl w/less distortion - not an issue in small-to-medium rooms, perhaps, but me... | |

| buy upsample processor or new CD player? Or ... ? a ~$130 art di/o w/~$5 upgraded powersupply will be equal or better than any cd player or dac up to $3k, imo. spend another $100-$200 on it to have it tweeked, & it gets even better...doug s. | |
| Furman X-312 - a good subwoofer crossover? dunno about the furman, but the marchand xm-9 w/upgraded op-amps, is at least as good as the bryston, at less than half the price. and, w/24db/octave slopes, & w/its wolume pot at the chosen x-over frequency as well as for low & hi-pass, i... | |

| Turntable suggestions? jcc613, ya may be right - everyone should check out the linn lp12. but ya don't have to *own* one for yer quest to be complete... ;~)doug *done shopping for turntables* s. | |
| Best "Used" Audiophile speakers for 1000-1500 hi steved, i guess that explains the title of yer post: "Audio Artistry Dvoraks"... ;~)doug s. | |

| Solid State amp with wide soundstage i'm w/tweekerman on the electrocompaniet amps. a pair of excellent aw60ftt's were advertized here on a-gon for $1200 - a steal at the price. no typical solid-state sound here. all the detail, w/no harshness or grain. works great w/tubed preamps, t... | |
