| Whose got best class D at this point? I had the NuForce 9's and thoughtthe Edge G.5 was nicer. I found out after I intended to sell it, that NuForce requests that you keep *20 (twenty) feet between the amps and broadcast receivers (TV/Radio).Edge tells me that 20 inches is good enough... | |

| Will SACD Formats Play through a Standard DAC? I believe that the EM (Ed Mitner) Labs D/a will decode Sacd format. They are very pricey though. | |
| Burning in period Nautilus 800? Hi, I can't speak for the physical parts. but new drivers have new wiring. All of the conductive metals need to be broken in like an interconnect. So figure minimum of 100 hours like a new I.C. | |

| B&W 803D or Dynaudio C2's Howdy,wondering as I've been looking on A-Gon, how do the M series DynAudio's compare? They were $16k available for $8K.Also the PSB Platinum T8 is on his short list.he's not heard them yet, but I am wondering if having two tweeters wouldn't smear... | |
