| Beginner Audiophile. How to chose a right amp? Recommendation for my setup? Nice review here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FIl3BtdonRI | |
| Which Harbeth would work in my room? Thanks! but just to be clear, it's not my review, it's someone else's, but I think it exemplifies well the size of room that 40.2's can work in, even if that size is not optimal.Vu of Deja Vu in Wash DC, a Harbeth dealer, told me they needed a min... | |

| Integrated amp for Focal Aria 948 speakers? SS or tube Same set-up 3xBelles w/ PMC Twenty/24 speakers listed at 90 dB sensitivity: I can't turn the preamp much beyond 9 o'clock because it would be too loud, though I suspect the preamp might work optimally if the volume were closer to noon.Focal 948's ... | |
| New Buchardt S400 Signature Limited to 25 pairs and already sold out. | |

Huge companies can be a nightmare dealing with to get a repair done (Sony, Marantz) and will eventually let the serviceability of a component expire. Also, look at the thread on repairing Esoteric.Small companies may close, b... | |
