So Jack Bruce driving force behind Cream, would you agree that Mick Taylor was the driving force behind Stones when he was a member? Yes, not jagger. About Derek and Dominios, seems from the comments you make about Clapton, then Duane + Clapton , ... 
How much does your system retail for?
When any of you guys do a Garage Sale, let me know, please! Guess i need to post: a humble $3K, Man, do i have a long way to go!! I could probably spend another 2K speakers(Seas Thor), 4K digital(Jadis), 8K amp(Jadis), system i'll die with. 
Riddle me this...
Absolutely! The watt rating thing is out of order. I have to believe Bigtree about bigger amps sometimes taking away some of the musicality, thus not a class A sound. Jadis lets you know which of their amps are class A. Ok, so we need to vote whic... 
Your ONE all time favorite love song?
Nights In White Satin, Moody Blues, "Just what you want to be, you'll be in the end. And i love you, oh how i love you..." Poetry par excellant! 
What prevents DIY speakers to become the ultimate?

Texan blueser Johnny Winter played his share of very complex passages. Had a great sounding guitar, and could really sing dem' blues. Surprised no one mention Johnny. Peter Green was definetly a great pure blues player. BTW the driving force behin...

Jcbtubes has correctly answered the question, a very close second would be the Jadis JD1 trans. Hey Mejames could you possibly start another thread, with the same question on DAC's. . oh, i see Audiofed has mentioned the big Burmester, now that's ... 
Hypex HS200 amp vs Marchand for use as sub amp...
One member mentioned to me that when you run your satalites through a sub amps connects, they pick up on a tad of coloration, seems very plausible, any honest comments?

My FINAL VOTE: Peerless XLS 12..refer to linkwitz's web page. The real McCoy. Anybody could build that cabinet, the XLS sells for like 150, Hypex subamp 299,..Top Dog! 
Equipment Break-in: Fact or Fiction
Mrd, thanks for your honest and incredible story. Naim should back their stuff up and give the gut a full refund. Yes, every lab should be fair in what they sell. Why? For all their GIGANTIC HYPE, they and the "hi-fi" mags print out. Of course a 2...

OK that's cool. Just post your review. In the meantime, do check out Linkwitz's Peerlesss XLS12 design, called Thor. Very simple cabinet, and as you know he's very knowledgable in speaker stuff. He claims this XLS delivers very accurate musical ba...
