| Cary 303t Pro or Ayre c5xemp Is the Concentra based on the model 2 or 112 amp? I forget. | |
| Amp for PSB Stratus Gold Given the speakers, I think a Parasound A21 or a Rotel 1090 would work very well. You should be able to get either for a lot less than $2500. | |

| Firing up old tube amps. Should I worry? Buy a cheap pair of speakers from Best Buy, stand back, put some safety glasses on, flip the switch and use the return policy. | |

| Cables more hype than value? Audiolabyrinth,I think you get more enjoyment out of this site than anyone. Did you see the thread with the washing machine. I laughed so hard I thought I cracked a rib. I'm still sore and its been 2 days. | |
| Rega DAC ...what else should I consider ? You should be able to get a Teac 501 from Music Direct. | |
| Shielded Phono Cable Suggestions? I find Audioquest to be very well shielded. For me, they always work when I get a hum with other cables. Its no guarantee, of course. Its just my experiance. If you call The Cable Company, they'll send you some demos to try in your system before. ... | |
| 10-15k budget in a 6m x 4m room. Please help. I think you can get much better answers if you can list what type of equipment that you've heard in the past and what type of sound you are looking to get. If you are really new and have very little experience listening to gear, I would recommend ... | |
