| Abominations: HT processor to tube amps? I run my HT thru a NAD M15 HD into Rogue M-150 monos. It’s absolutely outstanding. I’ve got an Adcom 6 channel amp running bridged center and surrounds (leaving the other two to pick up Atmos once I upgrade the NAD). My two-channel listening goes... | |
| Which? Muse model 100 amp or Acurus DIA100 integrated? I would opt for the DIA100 due to its control in the lower registers (it's a bit grainy on top). But as Zd542 says - it all comes down to your preferences. | |
| System upgrade advice I doubt you will outclass those electronics with those 804's, but I would audition them first. If you can find a dealer to loan them to you, that would be best.I like the Paradigm Studio series, but can see where some can find the tweeters subject... | |

| Borodin String Qtt 2 Ptss: got a copy of the EMI recording you mention on silver disc headed my way. I'll give it a whirl and let you know what I think to continue this discourse. | |
| Borodin String Qtt 2 I only have one disc of Borodin, his Symphonies 1 & 2. Honestly, I'm with Brownsfan - Borodin is somewhat obscure, and definitely isn't a name I would search for actively with regards to chamber music.I will, however, look for your subject dis... | |
| 'Best' Rachmaninoff 3rd Wild and Argerich are great performances too, don't get me wrong. I just prefer Horowitz's rendition.I'm going to have to track down Ohlsson's and Ashkenazy's versions as well. Thanks! | |
| old carver tmf-25 vs new NAD D 3020 I had a TFM-35x many, many years back. Coupled to a Carver Pro-Logic Pre/Pro (forgot the model #), the sound was incoherent, which I later pinned to the pre/pro when I replaced it with a McCormack TLC-1. The TFM-35x turned out to be pretty good (l... | |
| 'Best' Rachmaninoff 3rd Horowitz with the NYPO under Barbirolli. Brilliance, virtuosity, and refined emotion. My favorite. |
