xlr splitter?
I am biamping with balanced interconnects but my amps have a switch on the back so only one cable is needed. If I switch amps and continue biamping I will construct my own cables. An easy task if you have any ability. 
Class-D or switching amps, any opinions on??
Probably not the only person here who has owned class A, A/B, D and tubes. Currently using two PS Audio Trio C-100 in full balabnced bi-amp configuration. The C-100s use the same ICE module as Bel Canto, Cary, Rotel and probably many other makers ...

Is this what you are looking for? 
Upgrade from Quad 11L?
Not sure of your budget for a sub but I used (and still use) a James EMB-1000 with the Quads. This sub has been fairly easy to mate with the various speakers I have owned. Especially after I set it on a 2 inch thick maple block. Very clean bass, m... 
Upgrade from Quad 11L?
I owned the 12L2s and really liked them. Sold them to try the active version and regretted it. The actives weren't anywhere near as satisfying as the standard speakers. Also tried the 21L2s but going on memory, I preferred the 12L2s.The L series q...

NAD remotes

Nad c-370: Right Channel drops out
Magfan, your second paragraph had me chuckling again. I'm not arguing the logic you put forth, it is a rosy picture though.Agree 100% with your closing sentence. I have known a few truly gifted techs.

10-11-09: MagfanI know there is sometimes special knowledge involved, but really. Once a tech has the schematic and test values what could possibly go wrong? Well that truly made me lol. Magfan, I'm guessing you aren't a technician. 
Should I trade-up from my Krell KAV 300?
Never heard your amp so I can't help.I'm curious how small your room is and how the Thiels work there? 
HDCD recommendations??
"Mutations" by Beck is another good one if you like "Sea Change."Joni Mitchell's "The Hissing Of Summer Lawns" is another good one.But my favorite HDCD recommendation is "A Nod To Bob." This cd was a wonderful introduction to some new artists for ...

HELP Amp for Revel M20?
Congrats on the M20s, fantastic speakers at used prices. I used a Bel Canto eVo2i to drive my M20s with excellent results. 
Class D amps,bang for your buck ones
The PS Audio trio A-100 in balanced mode is an excellent amp for the money. I say in balanced mode as I haven't used them through the RCA inputs. I use two of them to bi-amp my speakers. They are extremely easy to bi-amp with a back panel switch.
