Integrated Class D amp with tone Controls & Phono Preamp

Have a bug for a new (to me) integrated
@doyle3433 Didn't catch your response to my question, whether or not you're familiar with the Lyngdorf approach? As I mentioned in my earlier post, I believe the TDAI 3400 has the capability to allow you to run your tube amp through it, so you c... 
Have a bug for a new (to me) integrated

looking for bookshelves - Another usual boring speaker discussion
Oops! It looks like I have an older version called the Tiny Dancer. Very similar bookshelf speaker, primary difference aside from a slightly different cabilet shape being the Be versus diamond tweeter. The model is Be-718. May be worth some cons...
