I replaced the donut gaskets in my Kef 104/2 &
Thanks for your input wainwright. Maybe my post will help someone that has a little more tolerance for imperfection. I did read one of your post about filling your amp with sand to eliminate "tizziness" and thought that it was quite remarkable and... 
Parasound A21 help?
That is what I thought about the fuse/light situation. Turns out the lights will still come on around the power button and the "P" at the top if the rear panel fuse is blown. The channel lights in the middle will not. Replaced the rear fuse and it... 
I have owned a Nakamichi PA7 amp. How would you
Well I finally settled on a amp. I purchased a Parasound A21 and now have to decide on a preamp or dac. I would like to connect my directv receiver and a cd player. Anyone want to chime in on my best direction? Budget is $1000. Going into Kef 104/2's 
Nakamichi? Can the amp be turned on with.........
Just the amp. I think I will pass on the Nak. I have a pair of Kef 104/2 speakers. Maybe a Bryston 3bst?

How would you compare the Aragon to a Bryston 3bst?

Will this put the amp in any danger to operate it this way? Is there a better $800 dollar amp that I should consider before I buy this tomorrow? Thanks!

I am about to buy an amp tomorrow and would like an opinion. What is the best $800 dollar amp available used with at least 150 watts per channel? Thanks! 
B&K 507 has died. Thinking of going 2 channel?
I was wondering if the B&K 507 that I have has any value or do I throw it away? It has stopped receiving signal from the remote. It will make changes from the front panel but no sound. I am still undecided on its replacement. 
B&K 507 has died. Thinking of going 2 channel?
Thanks for the input. I'll spend some time becoming familiar with your suggestions. I'm all over the board right now. I've bounced from another 507 to a Marantz 7005 and parasound power amp and a few different 2 channel in betweens. It's tough to ... 
B&K 507 has died. Thinking of going 2 channel?
I don't need a 2nd zone. I am 70% music and would like a tuner. 5.1 is all I need if I go the surround route. I am considering just going stereo with separate preamp and amp like I had. I want to keep it fairly simple and don't have anything to co... 
B&K 507 has died. Thinking of going 2 channel?
I'm torn between a Emotiva preamp, a Marantz av7005 and a 507 B&K The B&K is less but I want to make the right choice and I live in an area that requires lots of travel to hear anything close. I know the B&K sound and I liked it OK but...

Which models of the prior post listed brands would be good to look for used? NAD, Anthem, Marantz model numbers? Music is my first consideration. Thanks for the replies.
