Wow; I was kind of surprised...there wasn't a Krell sub-forum, in the Manufacture section. So...I'll post here. I'm a fan, of class-A; and, of course, I find Mr. Pass' designs to be wholly satisfying. Problem is; they ain't cheap. XA is out of my budget...I need balanced in, so that limits my...

Spendor doesn't have a dedicated thread here? Am I the first to mention, the new monster SP200? :disbelief:

Is it, the last B.A.T. pre...to utilize 6922s?

Hmm...not a ton of B.A.T. guys, here at AShark huh; or they're the more listening/less posting types ;) I'm in the middle, of yes...another system flip (but honest...I really am, trying to slow things down. Frankly...it's getting a little tiresome); and I could use some feedback about these...

So...I've always heard, and the prices seem to bear it out; that bridging is "bad". For example...(and this is when the idea was laid out to me; early in my audiophile-dom) Why not buy (2) Parasound A23s, for ~$2k and are said to deliver "400wpc"; as opposed to an A21, for ~$2500...and "only"...

Guys...Randy, is purchasing my VT-50. It's his first foray, into tubed power-amps. I've suggested, he take full advantage of the wealth of glass knowledge...here at the Shark; as far as, setting it up...properly and safely :audiophile: Thanks

I love the fact, that the 75 has the large meters on the front; that double for biasing. Obviously, the 150 doesn't have them out front; but is there something inside the case? Or do you need a good, old-fashioned (and potentially dangerous...lol) Voltmeter?

Wow...surprised I didn't find a thread on this already. I'm seriously contemplating, moving up from my 26...to a 3. Then...I got a good offer, on a 5; from a seller I've dealt with in the past, and I know takes meticulous care of his gear. The 3 was already, a bit of a budget-s t r e t c h e...

So...I downloaded some supposedly, MQA-encoded test files; from the 2L Test Bench. Not making the MQA indicator, light-up on my Mytek Brooklyn. Thoughts?

Love my Ayre QB-9 DSD; but I've had it a while, and just want to try something new, fresh, and good. Vote? Thanks :thumbsup:

Perfect...for casual listening, in the Bedroom! Thanks Mike :audiophile:

Can anyone comment on these http://atcloudspeakers.co.uk/professional/loudspeakers/scm20psl-pro/ Looks like...a Harbie 7, with maybe a little more punch to me?

Anyone heard anything? :exciting:

Is it me...or is it in the toilet these days? Must be, all the deep discounting and back-door deals; dealers are making. Talk about, your double-edged sword...lol.

Certainly correct me if I'm wrong; but I think, for the most part...I've heard you guys, sh*t on the 26. Sure...the 27, Ref 3, Ref 5, etc; must be better. But what's so bad...about the 26? It's what I can afford; or am I almost better off, with an 25 mkI? Because I do like the idea, of being...
