| Vandersteen 3 w/ARC d240 MKII "I just find it hard to believe this much resolution could be affected by toe and tilt, but stranger things have happened in my world....lol"Its more of a timing issue than resolution. Once you get your speakers set up a little better, play some m... | |

| Best integrated up to $6000 "02-04-15: PehareIn re ARC...I once owned a new ARC vsi55 & it was disappointing as it wasn't refined or resolving."I would agree with that. They tried to do too much for too little money. Its hard to build a good tube preamp for what that thi... | |

| What speakers for 10k? I think they look OK. Is that the same ribbon tweeter that Martin Logan is using on their non esl speakers? | |
| Naim Amp Wattage Ratings "02-03-15: Rshad0000Thanks for your input guys! I'm going to audition some Ayre equipment as well and decide from there."That's a much better idea. Just get a V-5 and you're done. | |
| Why do my ears ring with my new amplifier? "02-04-15: Lowrider57I wonder if using headphones would work as a troubleshooting tool ? It could rule out any components."It's a very good idea, but I don't think it would be too reliable. There would be no way to tell if the ringing is caused by... | |
