| Usher BE-10/20, what do you use to drive them? Having owned several pairs of Ushers, they do like power. My PS Audio GCC 250 (250 wpc @ 8ohm/500 wpc @ 4 ohms) grabs hold of them. FYI, one is for sale on Audio Sylum | |

| Please suggest integrated for large space I have a PS Audio GCC 250 that I bought for my 2 channel system when I was on a simplify kick. Since then I got Magnepans and had to biamp them to get the magic. Now the GCC 250 is overkill in my 2 channel video system. Let me know if you are inte... | |
| PS Audio Power Plant or Power Plant Premier My partner had numerous PPs 300/500/1000. I now have a PPP. He says it's better! I also agree, get a dedicated line. AND check for hot/neutral. My "electrician" had them reversed! | |
