| Phono stage gain too high??? Should I return it?? Just wanted to thank everyone for the advice. I wound up switching out the Blackbird High output with the Low output version and that did the trick. It's a great match and things are sounding really, really good. | |

| Phono stage gain too high??? Should I return it?? Thank you all so much for the thoughtful responses. Just a couple more details:1.

| Using TV as Audio Hub? This is exactly what I do in my family room with DirectTV, APpleTV, and Blu Ray running to TV , then out to a Bel Canto Integrated w/ DAC via TOSLINK. Works pretty damned well. I am pretty sure my DAC is reclocking the bits and bytes so unless the... | |

| why use towers if you've got a sub?? Thanks for all the thoughts so far. While i recognize that i am posting on the HT forum, i am interested in both two channel and theater equally. I've got a single large room (about 4000 cu ft) and need to do one system. I am leaning towards a hyb... | |
