Multi-channel amp question????
I used to have the Citation stuff too- 5.1's and 7.1's and the 5.0 processor. They were great for the $$, and the bi-amping options made them very flexible. I was then looking for a home theater amp that could also provide audiophile 2-channel as ...

You missed ther Reference 3A models- Royal Master?? Also- MM De Capo.However, that being said, I own Mani-2's, so that's where MY vote goes!!

Sim Audio P-3 preamp comments???

Absolutely Sarah. I am trying to decide on whether to hold out for the new version of Isolink (will be out in the next few weeks- a new one with 'dual' IEC's, upgraded transformer, etc.- hey- maybe you can buy that one and sell me your single...),...

Right on Sarah! Hey- re: the Isolink, I haven't picked it up yet. I DO have all the power cords and Mega Powerpoint outlet strip. Will the Isolink yield a large improvement? (CDP is Audio Aero Capitole 24/192).
