| Avalon Eidolen VS Porac D80 or B&W 802D In the one system I heard them in the 802D was a bit thick in the midrange - colored IMO, though clear and uncolored on topYMMV | |
| Best speaker value between $1800-$2100 Are the Silverlines not good speakers? Maybe the Creek should be replaced instead?I do not know but it seems the Creek is a bit old and I have always read good things about Silverlines.fwiw | |
| Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good? Rja I got an email from Steve and GG will be back with new offerings soonI made the same observation recently hence the reply from Steve | |

| Short List of the Best 20K Speakers It seems to me Vandy model 5 would be a good choice with the 'dial a bass' feature they have...just a thought | |
| Zu Essence vs Devore Nine vs Maggies 36" is not enough for Maggies IMO. But if you must you must! | |
| Is high end Power Conditioners worth the extra $$$ I have the AR1p and like it very muchI presume you know that HP likes the AR6T and thinks it is the best on the planet, he says it is a big step up from the AR6p like you have...fwiw |
