| Electrocompaniet AW300M or AW800M versus McIntosh 1.25KW? If the sound is in your face, you will definitely tire of them quickly. I would try out the smaller amp with your system to see over a couple of days, you really like it. | |

| The Shure V15 V with a Jico SAS/B stylus VS The Soundsmith Hyperion MR and Lyra Atlas SL I bought the Shure V15-4 body and a new Jico SAS with the boron cantilever. I love it!

| Wilson Watt 3/Puppy 2 Loudspeaker @deep_333, Dave Wilson was far from incompetent. At the time, the Watt/puppy was one of the best high end speakers available. You should be tarred and feathered for your insult to Dave Wilson. | |

| The Allure of Vintage Audio Gear @jasonbourne71, wow! I had the original 3 highboys I believe they were called and traded them for the 3A, then bought the 7 which was a more modern 3A. I worked in an audio store, and got 50% off retail. I think the 7 went for $800 retail price. I... | |
