What's your favorite boutique speaker maker
Verdant Audio.  I have had the Nightshades for a little more than a month and I like them more every time I listen to them 
Amp to drive Verdant Nightshade 1
@chayro  The speakers were demos from a review.  They are broken in.  @stereo5 t&a looks awesome but seems to be above my budget.  @twoleftears Three boxes is annoying.  Looks like nice equipment, but it's three boxes that it looks like you sh...

@steve59 Thanks.  That makes sense now.  It's already starting though.  I have the speakers for a few days and I am wondering what I am missing because of my amp.   Same thing happened years ago when I stepped up from an old pair of Infinitys to t...

@mesch Thank you!  Had some from hanging crap for my kids birthday.  Works perfectly@steve59 The guy from Verdant was pitching AVM as amplification.  I am opposed to tubes and want SS but don’t know this brand.  Do you have any thoughts on AVM vs ...

@audiokinesis If it is the speakers that I am seeing at James Romeyn site, they are different in terms of styling.  Which ones are you recommending?  @yogiboy I like the look of the Spendor D7.2s.  They are an option but a bit pricey for my taste....

@mijostyn  I hate the look of the Klipsch.  Not of interest.@mwh777 Good suggestion.  I have always found the bass on the Elys2 to be a bit loose compare to digital.  @dekay Love this suggestion along with that of the cartridge.  Modest prices and...

Why do hi-fi companies avoid listing prices anywhere consumers can find them?  This is just stupid.  Half these products are impossible to find pricing unless a US review exists.  Price is a screener.  I don't want to waste my time with products t...

@tgrisham I definitely am thinking about smallish floorstanders.  Fair point about recommendations.  Demo's are tough now and I can return something if I don't like it.  @mozartfan Kits?  That sounds like assembly is required.  Not my thing.
