In search of........Reception
revox b261 (excellent sound, even tho digital, & it's tunable in 0.125 increments), onix 0a21 (will cost more w/soap p/s), magnum ft101a, older accuphase's, sansui tu-x1 or tu-9900. don't forget your roof-mounted antenna from antenna performan... 
Best speakers for 2A3 SET amplifier?
hi trelja; haven't heard the edgarhorns, so i can't pass direct judgment; however i have heard from others that they are very coloured. the avantgarde duos i heard sounded like music, even when driven by a 1.5wpc flea-amp. this was a couple years ...

avantgarde acoustics - uno's, duo's, or trios, depending upon the size of your room/budget. or, jadis eurythmies, which require room & budget size of the trios. 
Looking for loudspeakers under $4,000
hey, aren't monks supposed to be poor? and un-married? ;~) look into newform research nhb645's or r645's- uglier than the maggies, but much narrower, & easier to place. these are ribbons, sothat should make you happy. check their www, & ch... 
Entry into tubes
charlie (& Tm12), 1st of all, my comments regarding trying rogue stuff are directed at someone who specifically mentions that bass response is important, & that they want to use maggies, which are a hard load to drive, especially in the ba...

Entry into tubes
dunno how well the rogue will do regarding bass - i am the new owner of a rogue 99 preamp, tweeked by rogue, & the only thing that makes it listenable in the bass range is the addition of n.o.s. ge 6sn7 tubes - and this is w/a pair of adcom gf... 
Avantgarde Speakers
one of the nicest sounds i've heard came from an oldeer pair of duo's, (w/their earlier *217* subs, not the latest-n-greatest 222's). still, a phenomenal sound, being driven by some home-brew 1.5wpc set tub amps. i've seen the older version duos a... 
Best small 2-way floorstander?
re: subs, i would consider vmps - even w/a separate amp & outboard x-over (tho you can use a cheap passive x-over), you can get a *two*-sub set-up (the *only* way to properly integrate a sub system into an audio set-up, imho) for less money th... 
Interconnect with good bass
i have decent response from my tara rsc prime 1000. that being said, i'm interested in any info on bass response from analysis-plus' 9-gauge copper cable. a bit more than $100/m, i think, but not out-of-this-world, like some cables... thanks, doug

i have noticed on a couple other threads that Tm12 seems to have more negative comments about folks that happen to like gear he either can't afford/hasn't heard/doesn't like. all i know about tm12 is he likes (& owns) coincident & rogue. w...
