Thank you for your answers. With great fear i badly shoehorned my Nordost Valhalla cables into the too tight area and the posts are slightly too wide to get a complete fit (which scared me) I hooked my Dac up into the Mains In and nearly had a heart attack because some set-up called Direct button disabled the volume n on the integrated amp and allowed the full volume of the Dac to come roaring through. I ran to the computer to pause the music and then lowered the Dac volume to about 40 from 100. I think I could go to a line in and that would allow the integrated volume knob to work. I'm praying that i didn't damage the tweeters...it was horrible sound when that happened. I own a Krell FPB with the KCT preamp but for the umpteenth time the amp is going back for repair due to shutdown failure. I am going to very careful with the volume with this set-up.
would using the onkyo a9150 with Thiel CS6 speakers be safe?
The onkyo receiver says it has this but it's only 60 watts per channel My krell fpb300cx failed and somebody loaned me this receiver. Onkyo has this description about current.
Customized High-Current Transformer and Custom Audio-Grade Capacitors
Current has great influence on sound quality. High current is required for a better grip on the speaker transducers, improving control and accuracy.
A customized high-output transformer and two huge custom capacitors inside the A-9150 deliver current through discrete output-stage transistors that are kept cool by an aluminum heat sink.
Speakers react instantly, with throw-range precisely controlled for accurate articulation even through dynamic and complex musical passages.
