| Source vs Target: where is the weakness? I disagree that someone should start with a source first and work their way to their speakers. Why do I think this? Because ultimately it is one's speakers that determines the limits of what a system can sound like. You have to find a speaker that... | |
| What makes more sense? A tube preamp with SS amp will cost you a lot less in tubes. Tube amps burn through tubes much faster than tube preamps. KF | |
| Which Amp for Magnepan MG 3.6/R? Artar1,Why would you need to send a Plinius amp back to New Zealand to be fixed???? Last time I checked they have a repair center in Oklahoma in the USA (it may be in NY now). But they have good customer support in the US.One of the best deals in ... | |

| What turntable for $1500 ? Basis 1400 + RB300 Tonearm + a decent cartridge depending on what phono preamp you end up with.KF | |
| ADDING TUBES TO HOME THEATER???? I have a Cary Rocket 88 for sale right now, and I would absolutely NOT recommend adding tubes to a HT system.Why? For one tubes go bad after a certain amount of use and that use in amps is about 1/10th the time tubes tend to last in tube preamps.B... | |
| Best Amp & Pre-amp combo for under $2000 ??? Sorry if I sound a bit befuddled, but what does: "I tend to be around 60-70% music." mean?What else do you play through your stereo besides music? Do you use it for HT to?KF | |
