| Help with used "rock" speakers under 4K Go for the 801's. I love mine. They replaced my Thiel CS6's because they do wonderful things with all the music I love. They are outstanding on everything from Mozart to Megadeth.FYI If you buy the 801 S3's and feel you also need the Sound Anchor ... | |
| Mobile Fidelity Surface Noise I find MoFi no worst than any of the other so called Audiophile vinyl pressing. The quality control is poor. All the companies need to sit down with the pressing factory and discuss product quality control. I have better luck with thinner so calle... | |

| I am at the end of my rope, please help Get the phono pre-amp checked out. If it were me I would buy a very cheap phono stage on the web. Some sites sell them for much less than a $100.00, it may be cheaper then sending back to the manufacturer if it's not under warranty. kabusa.com sel... | |

| power tube rating If you buy your tubes from VTL, they will ask what power tubes you want 6550 or KT-88. I prefer KT-88s in my VTL amps. They are warmer on top and have nice punch on the bottom when compared to the 6550s. | |
