Speaker Recommendation Needed
Thanks for all the great responses!While the Peachtree does have a tube most of the reviews say it makes little discernable difference. Zu does feature there speakers with Peachtree Amps so at least in their opinion it is a good match.I am surpris... 
Can the KEF LS50 rock?
Thanks bob! 
Can the KEF LS50 rock?
Thanks bob_reynolds. I am definitely leaning towards the Jade 3s and trying to blend in my sub. They are a bit cheaper to. Do you think they will have a forward treble on them? I usually turn up the treble on my av receiver because I like that ext... 
Great bookshelf or small towers suggestions
Hey Wolf,You and I seem to like the same sound. Improved brightness, upfront treble and mids. Which speaker are you leaning towards now? 
Can the KEF LS50 rock?
Interesting. So far in this forum I am hearing a lot of negative feedback. Only one person has actually tried the Rel sub and Kef combo and was very positive about it. Kudos to you man. Problem for me is I live in a small town so I don't have the ... 
Can the KEF LS50 rock?
Hey johnnyb53. I know the Elacs are getting great reviews but I don't know if I want to invest in a pair of speakers featuring "luxurious textured vinyl finish."Music Direct is also selling the Wharfedale Jade 5s for about 600 more. I do like whar...

Recommendation for Integrated Amp with Tone Controls

Recommendation for Integrated Amp with Tone Controls

Recommendation for Integrated Amp with Tone Controls
Thanks chrshanl37! But I thought that only applied to the speakers with built in amps? 
Recommendation for Integrated Amp with Tone Controls
Hi sbank,I use a Sonos Connect. Not sure how I would digitally alter that source. The other issue would be TV broadcasts. My audio needs to do double duty.thanks 
Help with high level subwoofer connection
That was the issue. It's an A/V receiver with a bunch of connections back there and I have to pull it out. So wrap the wires around each other?  
Integrated Amp Vs. Outboard DAC
Hey Truman, in person how do the speakers look and what do you think about the sound? I have heard it is polarizing. I went ahead and with some trepidation decided to get an external DAC. Now I just need to settle on a good amp for around 500-600....
