| Is it easier to sell mono blocks or stereo amp on the used market? I have dealers that will let me bring home demo gear that I can listen to, but when I'm interested in a brand I'm not sure of compatibility with I'll buy used so if I don't care for the match I can resell at or near my initial cost. Buy a pair of... | |

| BEST SPEAKER THAT COMES TO LIFE AT LOW LISTENING LEVELS Run a 1/3rd octave tone generator on your system along with a db meter and you'll likely find out "elliot" is correct and our ears are much more sensitive to tones from around 600hz to 3khz and even if your speakers measure flat they'll sound defi... | |
| Legacy Audio Stuff I'd get dropped in a discussion when searching something online and I'd comment without looking at the date. After a bit I started checking dates on threads b4 posting. | |
| Am I crazy to upgrade? put a resistance meter on the L & R pins on the back and it should tell you if something's amiss. IDK what else you'd expect somebody to do to check the speakers? | |
| How do you decide what to listen to? Same old stuff? It's been a few days since the op checked in, but you nailed it when you said it takes time to listen to music. | |

| Accuphase Experiences Thanks for checking back in. Accuphase build quality, fit and finish draws my attention even when I'm satisfied with what I already have. | |
| Will an Amp change improve my system ? I demoed a half a dozen amps that all sounded the same from Nac, B&K, NAD, Sunfire, RGR and a couple others that made no difference. When I stepped up and tried a Krell product I was impressed at how much smoother music was. All those 200 wpc ... | |

| Has anyone here had any dealings with Tekton, particularly their subwoofers I look at Tekton and think of VMPS, a brand I was quite interested in as a young, strapped music lover. A big box brimming with lots of drivers. Having never heard a pair I can't comment on SQ, but I think 1 look would suggest what to expect them ... | |
