My dealer swears by the Torus RM20. Anyone tried it and compared it to the Denali? I had the Bryston Bit-20, which is an RM20 with a Bryston badge on it. loved it. only sold when i downsized everything. never compared to the Denali, though

So that everyone here understands WHY my opinion changes. I wasn't saying your opinion couldn't change, or you couldn't like something else better. I just meant that some things you say now are the exact opposite of things you originally said a...

WC loves to kind of bash Pass .8s these these days, but right there at the top of this thread is Pass labs 250.8: What can i say here. This is THE BEST STEREO AMP i have ever heard. This amp destroys all the amps i have listed above today to incl...

When it comes to the mainstream brands, no dealer is going to order a cable for you and let you try to see if you like it in your system. However, i would be MORE THAN HAPPY to test drive any cable you have. That's why I posted about Sablon. Y...

fsmithjack , I went from an x250.5 to the xa60.8 and was extremely happy. I'd still have the xas if I didn't have to downsize. Have you tried the xa?
