| Quietest BUDGET high-current power cord? The only cords I have experience with at the ~$250 street price are Oyaide Tunami GPX. I use three in my system mixed with a few cords costing much more, and the Oyaide cords hold their own. | |

| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier Is the 845 amp a stereo or monoblock configuration? SET, Parallel SET, Push Pull? | |
| Rogue vs ARC IMO, if an amp sounds good, it sounds good. More expensive parts don't necessarily equate to better sound.So, for me, the issue of one manufacturer using "better" parts (define better...) doesn't make much difference if the amp using less expensiv... | |

| Rotel RB1080 vs Odyssey Stratos vs McCormack DNA I am worry of seeing minor problems like popping or clicking noise...Gte357s (Threads | Answers)You are not going to experience popping or clicking.Nevertheless, if you will be more at ease with a newer amplifier, then buy an Odyssey or Rotel. | |
| Rotel RB1080 vs Odyssey Stratos vs McCormack DNA I'd be patient and wait for a DNA-1 with SMc Audio upgrades to appear in the classifieds. Or, depending on your budget, I'd buy a used DNA-1 and send it to Steve McCormack for an upgrade package. | |
