SET--Cary/Sophia 300/845 bassed amps
Well I picked up a Sophia 845,today. I listened at this member's house.---( The joys of buying from someone local) I was astounded by how much amp you get for the price. He has his system more optimised with the Concidence speakers.--I can't remem... 
Suggestions for rear speakers to go with Aerials
Way to go Ed.I never knew that re.Mr. Kelly. To add my 02--(inflation you know) most any pair will still give you the ss factor. I think too much is made of the matching thing, anyway.--- Esp. if the budget is strained. Ed's got your ans for ,how ... 
SET--Cary/Sophia 300/845 bassed amps
My biggest problem is after reading reviews on most all these amps;---They all seem to be the 'best you ever heard' No hum,great highs,mids,and bass More dynamic than SS . YEA?? Seems like I remember reading the 300b amps are a tiny bit more pure ... 
Is it just me or are things off this tax week?
I may have misinterpreted your post,but is this something like the hungry vultures waiting for the lions to finish with the carcass; so they get their dinner?----- I got a few loball offers that made it seem like that's how the sender thought. As ... 
parts connexion mods for denon 2900
Not that I even know what it means, but I was reading at the avs forum that this player has a "macro blocking" issue. Does the mod address this? 
EL34 comparisons please
Just a further comment:--- When I bought the CJ5s,I pretty much knew nothing about any sonic differences between Svets and Siemans. The seller included both sets. ---He prefered the Svets so I did them 1st. For about 2 days.--- Then I did the Siem... 
Digital Cables
A few years back I talked to the designer at Aural Sym. He said the same about the termination. I have a Theta data 3,and I use Syn Re.'s 1k aes/ebu--with active X. At that price I have to keep it for 30 or 40 years.--Jeez, I hope a hundred dollar...

Just a guess but I would say it depends on the quality of your TT setup. 
Should I replace ARC D130 for Bryston 4B-ST?
In most all systems a great pre is always better than going straight to the amp with a cd player's volume control. Then think about whatever amp. 
Whats better then PS Audio P300? ? ? ? ?
Me three on the AM Stealth; got 2 of 'em. 
Is it important to match amps for LCR speakers?
I use different amps for all the channels. I'm a 2ch guy and the mis match doesn't bother me in the slightest. HT is great for me this way. I just don't critique it as others do;I just enjoy. 
EL34 comparisons please
I have 2 sets of CJ m.blocks.The 5s and the 8xs (Both all triode)I use and love the Seimens. I have a new set of Svets---they ain't the same for sure. Other than the fact that I'm talking about 32 of them el34s I would try some Mullards.----But ev... 
Sonic Frontiers Power 2 or ARC VT-100 MKII???
Sorry;I just enjoy offending as many people as possible at one time. Charming isn't my long suit. When you put this 'other' amp in the trash----use a plain brown wrapper and make sure you do this in the middle of the night, so as not to be seen by...

I find put each item on repeat and do the best you can. One of the best things is the simpte colorbars---black and white boxes--Pluge tests--You know make the grey just barely visable next to the black bar.---It will be harder with a plasma entry ... 
Wadia 270se/27ix or DCS Purcell / Delius Combo?
Get the A M Enkainthus One or mk two and don't bother with the Purcell.(OR the Delius) Less money to begin with---one less ic and box. Nevermind the one less box;it's the sound.----You'll see I'm right.
