New D'Agostino Monoblocks...$250,000
Really from the beautiful casework and TOTL internals one could look this as true hifi bargain!! 
Who has Luv for the Lyngdorf 2170 and is thinking about the 3400.
You could stop by a music shop and buy some standard xlrs. Probably would only be $20 or so. I had Nordost Speaker cable years ago. Hated it. It sure changed the sound as promised. Nails on the chalkboard and no bass was not what I was hoping for.... 
Newbie needs help on Audio Research and DynAudio Quality
When I had Dyns they did not sound good at all with tubes. That was with a Cayin A100T with kt120s. They sounded great with high current ss amps.  
Focal Kanta No.2
Could be wrong but I doubt the Kanta can play down to 40hz cleanly at high spls. 40hz at 95db. What you think?  
Upgrading from Integrated Amp to Separates
Went from Odyssey Stratos Extreme and Upgraded Jolida Fusion Preamp to the Lyngdorf 2170 about a month ago. Odyssey is nice stuff IMO. In my system the Lyngdorf handily beats beats them. If I had less efficient speakers it may not be the case. Ody... 
MA252 + Bluesound Node 2 + DAC? Or Naim Uniti Atom/Star?
I see conflicting info on the Micromega specs. Are we sure it’s class AB? I read a review that said class d. It’s less than 20lb weight would indicate this as well.

Guarranteed eargasm the minute you put on your favorite tune. What’s that worth.....? Haha  
Tekton Double Impacts
This is not meant to be a combative post so please do not take it that way. I love my DIs with the $300 upgrade. Even more now that I have the Lyngdorf 2170. I believe it to be a screaming deal and that they absolutely compete with lots of substan... 
"Bookshelf" speakers designed to be placed near the wall behind them?
Guru QM10-2 is really musical and fun. Sound best right against the wall. Not picky about placement. Sound great on all genres. If you can find a pair they will surprise you. Wish I would have kept mine. Look good in an Apple kind of way.  
Just ordered Odyssey Stratos Extreme
Tube Preamp works great with them.  
Just ordered Odyssey Stratos Extreme
The 2 different Stratos I have owned are almost Tubey in the mid range. Very clean and dynamic on both ends of the spectrum. I am about to put a 2012 Stratos Extreme up for sale. Close to Kismet.  
Does anyone leave their amp and preamp on all the time?
Anything that’s not tubes or class a I leave in all the time. Longest component I owned was an Odyssey Stratos amp that I had for about 15 years and pretty much left it in the whole time. Was still rocking when I sold it.

Haha. Yeah that sounds about as bad as you can get.

I guess it probably depends on the speaker and amount of correction that is being applied. I am now getting 18% correction for Focus position. Not sure if this is in the ballpark or not to what others are getting. Bypass in my system sounds kinda ...

Sounds broken in Bypass.
