Eddie -- I am still using a 20 year old Yamaha 100 watt Amp. I need a new amp/preamp as well. But in rebuilding my system I thought it best to start with the...
At the price-point of $500 to $1000 can you really hear the difference between the "best" in that range, and "second best" in that range...? I am not sure that...

Yes, I do like them. But I think that either my hearing, or the speakers themselves, have deteriorated over time. One of them sometimes sounds a bit staticy....
Hi Pete, I have the Paradigm Studio 60's (v.2) and have had them for just about three years now. I found them to be more to my liking than similarly priced ...

Boy, you don't know what you're missing. If you balance your CD player on three cartridges ....... must be at least $500 each.... you will hear a dramatic...
Hi Pete, I picked up a used pair of Energy Veritas V2.2 a couple of years ago for under $1000 so you should have no problem finding them today for a great...
