Don Garber Fi 421A Amp
Did you ever get sell or trade your amp? I also believe you should give it some more time..Maybe switching out the driver tube.. 
Any experience with Arc ref75 driving magnepans
Taters,just wondering if you still have your ls27? I just got mine and I love it! What prompt me to start this thread was from reading threads stating that the ls27 wouldn't be a good match with the pass xa30.5 ...well to my ears it is a great mat... 
Any experience with Arc ref75 driving magnepans
I appreciate all of your input.I guess I should give you my room size.20x16x10ft ceiling.My amp now is a Pass labs xa30.5 only 30 watts but it doubles in 4 ohms..I know with Maggie's it's not all about the watts but the current of the amp.The 30.5...

Can I hear from some Emerald Physics Cs3 owners
That surprises me that you say that about the dsp..The presets make the setup a snap..Also the speakers really shine with a fast sub..They have a setting in the behringer for one or two subs that make it real easy to setup..less than 5 minutes.. 
Zu Essence vs. any Emerald Physics CS series
I agree with what your saying about open baffle speakers..The best sound to me at the recent Newport beach audio show was all the open baffle speakers along with DSP..This is something EP gives us without breaking the bank..

Best Integrated Amp Of All Times?
Ive just recieved my Qinpu A-8000 MkII.I thought my Jolida JD-300b sounded good with my Tyler PD-30s.Well the Qinpu not only took it to another level,it took it out of orbit! I dont believe you can touch this amp at its price!I thought I was happy... 
Any experience with Tyler Pro Dynamic speakers?
David12 Positioning of the PD-30s is no problem.Infact I just moved mine about 8 inches from the rear wall and was like I never moved them.I believe the speakers go lower then Ty has them rated for.I will offer the same as Nuguy,if your in so.cal ... 
Any experience with Tyler Pro Dynamic speakers?
I bought the first pair of PD-30s.Its been about 10 days now and they are breaking in nicely.Never any brightness.A big sound along with good imaging.Im using a Jolida jd300B with KR300B tubes.It fills up my 22x30 room with music.You can power the...
