Integrated amp recommendation for Maggie .7's
I heard the i50 at the Florida Audio Expo last month and I knocked out by the sound. I was ready purchase the amplifier until I found out that amplifier’s balanced inputs are not compatible with a signal beyond 2 volts. Most every DAC that has a f...

Harbeth 30.2 or Falcon Gold Badge
I am going order a pair of Falcon Gold Badge’s. I don’t understand why Falcon recommends 24” stands when the tweeter being 8” off the bottom would place tweeter at only 32” off the floor. Most of our ears fall a sitting 35-36” off the floor. Anyon... 
Auralic Aries G2.1 or Innuos Zenith mk3
I have a Innuos Zenith and I would be really interested in that sonic comparison. Audio reviewer‘s and bloggers never compare the sound of different streamers /server renders. A  side by side comparison of one box solutions like the Auralic Aries ... 
Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord?
The EQUI=CORE 300  is shown on the website sitting upright.   If I understand correctly,  Deep Core is some  dimensions as the EQUI=CORE 300. Can the Deep Core sit up right on a shelf right next to an 1800?  Should it be pulled away from an 1800 t... 
Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord?
Just to be clear on my previous question (see above post) how does Deep Core interface with a 1200 or 1800?  Does one outlet feed a Deep Core then perhaps a umbilical between it and a regular power conditioner?  
Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord?
Would a Deep Core companioned with a 1200 or 1800  start at the wall duplex then plug its  AC output into a 1200 or 1800?' Does a Deep Core and 1800 combo require separate power feed outlets. Does the Deep Core sit on top of a 1200 or 1800?  Would... 
Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord?
That would be really helpful as I'm going to pick up or the other. Isolation from digital components leaking noise from outlet to another plays a big role in my choice. I also intend to plug my power amp, digital front end and preamp all into a si... 
Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord?
Anyone compared a Equi = Core 1800 against one of newer  Shunyata Denali model conditioners. They are in different price classes, but still might be an interesting comparison. 
Audio Researh LS28, anyone heard this new preamp?
Anyone? 
Pass INT-150 or Bryston b135 sst^2?

Refined SS Stereo pwr amps under 10K?
Several others I would appreciate a perspective comparison on are the Mark Levinson 532H, the Ayre VX-5 and Plinius SA-103 which are my top three contenders to replace my ARC DS225. I've heard the VX-5 compared to my DS225 and it's clearly better ... 
Refined SS Stereo pwr amps under 10K?
For reasons too lengthy to describe, I cannot do monos, so I'm looking for a stereo amp. I've always read that Spectral amps require proprietary cables, odd input impedance matching such and they don't play well others so to speak. 
Mark Levinson 326s, an upgrade over the JC-2?

Mark Levinson 326s, an upgrade over the JC-2?
Hello HK_Fan I did get my 326s, now I'm just looking for an amp better than my Audio Rsearch DS-225 which I'm currently paired up with the preamp. What power amp did you match with your 326s? I aprecated your reply on the Parasound JC-2.Thank you,...
