| What is the best SS Amp and Pre given the trends? Here's another vote for the Belles 350A Ref... just got one to drive my ML Summits... incredible textural detail from deepest bass to crystalline highs. Gives me goosebumps! | |
| Summit's owners where do you have your settings?

| Best Amp For Martin Logan Aerius i Under $2000 I just purchased a Sunfire Cinema Grand 200 ~five to drive my Aerius i's. I've vertically bi-amped the Sunfire, and the soundstage is incredible. You can certainly find a used Sunfire in your budget. | |
| eAR 202/501-Would like to hear from owners I'm lookin' over your shoulder, also seeking opinions on those same two amps. I have ML Aerius speakers. Peter Thomsen, of Acoustic Reality, responded to an email inquiry, and advised me to get the 501 monoblocks, stating "the eAR 202 is not recom... |
