| Filling speaker Stands? I still am curious why no one mentions the use of BBs? | |
| Filling speaker Stands? Does anyone know why lead shot is always mentioned, but not BBs? | |
| Bi-amp through receiver vs pre out to 2 channel for fronts I believe it is Richard Vandersteen (Vandersteen Audio) and Jim Smith (Get Better Sound) who both recommend a single good amp.Tom | |
| Bi-amp through receiver vs pre out to 2 channel for fronts I think I read that another poster here (whitecamaross?) went so far as to say that there are NO multi-channel amps that sound as good as a 2-ch amp, even from the same manufacturer.Tom | |

| Bi-amp through receiver vs pre out to 2 channel for fronts Very welcome, OP. No, I didn't post and remove. Also, I read somewhere that it's better to use a single good amp bi-wired than two mediocre amps bi-amped.Tom | |

| Seeking informed advice on speaker acquisition (Vandersteen vs. OHM Walsh) @shadowcat2016, +1 for room treatment biggest bang for the buck!@audionoobie, my 2Cs have revealed more small details since going from a SS amp to a hybrid SS/tube amp. | |
| Does anyone have any experience of hybrid valve and solid state power amps? I love my Vincent SP-331 with Vandy 2Cs | |
