| Speakers on carpet or bare floor? I tried to but some of us old farts aren't as computer literate as you young sprats. | |
| Silver wiring for interconnects I have also used silver in places, replaced the tweeter wire in my S100s with Home Grown Audio silver wire and it made a nice improvement. I am using a custom silver tonearm cable from a small maker in England and it is very good. I have some Silt... | |
| Speakers on carpet or bare floor? I should have said that I think good stands with spikes will greatly improve your bass. There are cups you can put under the spikes to protect the floor, probably not necessary with rugs. Here is a more exact referral.http://www.oregondv.com/Floor... | |

The literature on this is exhaustive and there is little agreement on most aspects; but most would tell you tha... | |

| Subwoofer to go with Wilson Maxx II's You would not really want a Class A amp as a sub amp. they are hideously inefficient and their virtues would not be important and their vices magnified in a sub application. You need a lot of power and what the amp does outside the bass region wil... | |
