| Raven Nighthawk Mk 3.1 vs Cronus Magnum III I’ve owned the Cronus, not the Magnum, and now have a Raven Blackhawk LE. For me, there was no comparison. The Cronus was a perfectly acceptable amp but has nowhere near the refinement and presence of the Raven. Whether or not the difference in po... | |
| SD card formatting The choice of formatting of the SD card should have no effect on the musical performance. The formatting is specific to the computer platform in the device, so that it will be recognized by the device, and if the card works in your device the form... | |

| Could you please give me an advice The Onkyo HT-R290 is a receiver, not a power amp. It has several inputs on the back you could use to connect your devices with the necessary cables. Or, a simple way to connect your phone would be to buy a Bluetooth receiver that plugs into one of... | |
