| Does anyone have any experience of hybrid valve and solid state power amps? The LSA Statement is an incredible hybrid integrated. You'll find them every now and then here and should jump at the chance to own one. | |
| Where is Audiogon going with this..... Interesting thread here. I was burned by a dishonest buyer several years ago who made all sorts of claims about damage and packing and description discrepancies. He immediately initiated a Paypal dispute without even contacting me beforehand and I... | |
| Pre amps cost vs. value ... what I discovered last month. FYI: I'm not a scattered, aliterate writer - based on my posts above. It's just that voice to text while I'm driving sometimes isn't all that accurate. | |

| Preamps: Rogue v. VTL v. Blue Circle Some 15 years later, I wonder if the OP had a good choice? My Blue Circle 21.1 was spectacular in its time. | |
| Pre amps cost vs. value ... what I discovered last month. @dweller Sorry, but your initial reply was presumptuous and condescending.

| Pre amps cost vs. value ... what I discovered last month. Exactly. I imagine the Crane adds a powerful presence to your room. | |
| Pre amps cost vs. value ... what I discovered last month. Props to the OP. There's always a self-important contrarian ready to pick and pounce despite any initial ethos. I suspect the synergy in your room reveals a lot when a part of it is replaced. | |

| Schiit not shipping It doesn't seem like a tremendous number of A'goners who actually post are heavy into the drug scene. I mean, who knows what happens behind closed doors, but I have the feeling most audiophiles have either progressed past that stage or never walke... | |
