    Hello from Georgia

    My experience with receivers powering ml and other electrostatic speakers is that you need at least 100 wpc to power them. More is definitely better. The high end Sony es, denon, and Yamaha have worked ok for me. They won’t play loud, or with dynamic music. Just ok. I currently use my Yamaha rx...

    Recommended Network Streamer For Amazon Music?

    I got the node as well. After extensive research it fits the bill for my entry into streaming audio. Love it so far. I run it thru my bifrost Dac . The thing I enjoy most is to be able to listen to audio without changing cds or vinyl. I’m lazy in my old age. Currently using amazon(it is free...

    surround receiver

    I used a Sony es top of the line receiver for many years. It just didn’t have the get up and go I needed. Always wanted the dennon or marantz, however there were problems with both. I understand the anthem receivers are a reasonable choice. I for one currently use a Yamaha high end...

    Schiit Aegir, to power Vistas. Just no... right?

    I’m currently running a crown xli 1500 to power several speakers ( one pair at a time). Ml areius, ml clarity, or Kef 105/2. No problems with power. Not the best sounding,but works for Me for now. I have more speakers than amps, my wife has me on restriction until I sell some of my stuff!!!

    Hurricane Ian

    We are located in the Jacksonville fl area. Lots of rain and some serious wind. A few trees down in our neighborhood. All ok here. I have experienced over 15 hurricanes and feel for the residents in south fl. My son was in Michael in Panama City fl a few years ago. Still no help from the federal...

    Cheap solid state stereo power amp to drive 13a's for ocasional HT use (to save tube life of main amp)

    I looked at them, still new tech for home audio. Good ones are very pricey. The tech is proven though. Hence the crown xli 1500. Check the used markets for a deal. Class d is probably my next amp. Benefits far outweigh any drawbacks for me.

    Cheap solid state stereo power amp to drive 13a's for ocasional HT use (to save tube life of main amp)

    +1 on the Adcom 555, I used one for years on my stats. Accoustat, ml areius( I think. , I have to many) clarity, and original cinema. Recently using a crown xli 1500 with no problems. Sounds great for now. Probably will upgrade in the future, when we are done with renovations and outfitting our...

    Obsessive hobbies....

    You are right about panerai. They used modified Swiss and other movements in most of their watches. However, in some of their “works of art” they made their own. You are lucky to have a Pam 50. The prices were at their low about 3 years ago. I almost bought a Pam sub. But got talked out of if...

    Obsessive hobbies....

    That’s what happens today. Most watches built today use a throwaway movement that costs less than $10. Exceptions abound however they are very expensive. Look at products like Rolex, panerai, Patek Philippe, blancpan, and several others. The upshot with a fine timepiece is that it will last for...

    Obsessive hobbies....

    Wow, what a setup. I’m a gamer and I have never seen any thing like this, well done. With regards to the watch making questions. I am a retired master jeweler and I have had the opportunity to attend some watchmaker classes. Now days it’s all done with very specialized machinery. There are a...

    Best US Site to Sell Used Audio Equipment?
