It's not designed for home theater. It's for multizone whole house systems. I'm sure it'll be a good amplifier for that application.

Congrats, those are great speakers.

Great looking speakers! Congrats!

When I worked in a hifi store I had a few customers that mainly listened to am/fm and spent thousands on tuners. Are they not an audiophile? The media was free.

What does owning your own media have to do with anything? I own 7 types of media, r2r tape, tape, vinyl, cd's, hdcd's, sacd's and hi-res downloads. Does that make me better than the person who only...

The pricing isn't public on their website. Look at REL's website. It shows MSRP. Most brands do not. I shouldn't have to read a review to find MSRP.

Mcintosh always does a nice press...

Joseph Audio, Conrad Johnson and Pass just to name a few.

So, most manufacturers have a pdf price list with MSRP. Why not make them available to download by region? I have always hated how the manufacturers act like the pricing of their products is...

Dan, as long as you use their "smart connection" location or one of the recommended locations I can't notice a huge difference in speed. Over here we use a 4g router so it's pretty important that we...

My list of brands that you don't hear much about lately or never got much press IMHO (most have been mentioned):

Accustic Arts
ATI
BAT
Coda
Convergent Audio Technology
Duntech Speakers ...

Thanks for the great read and beautiful photos Bart & Meta!

Works fine on my phone and laptop. Great coverage Mike!

How are the new Chord amps? Unless I've missed it you haven't posted any pictures of them.

Awesome Mike! Thanks for sharing as always. Thoughts on Estelon and Zellaton speakers?

I really enjoy my Audeze LCD-XC headphones with the Deckard. I highly recommend Audeze. That Luxman amp looks awesome. If you're still looking at a new dac maybe the one you get will have a nice...

A couple more for your list: Electrocompaniet & Lamm (Hybrid)

We have used express VPN for 4 years with no issues. Can use it on your laptop and cell phones.

Bel Canto REF600M

Sound Labs

I'm not sure there is such a thing as an audiophile ear plug. Working in the aviation industry for many years, the best you can get will be from your ear doctor. They can make custom molded ear...

There are so many great brands out there for home theater speakers. For example: Paradigm Prestige, Monitor Audio Gold, Klipsch Reference, etc... I like the Klipsch THX setup minus the subs. They...

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

I think the big Avantgarde's (whatever the top model was back in 2005ish) that I listened to were paired with the 75SE's. My friend had the 75SE's running Reference 3A MM DeCapo's and it was...

Just curious, through all the amps that you have tried over the years, have you ever used Ayon, Graaf or Unison? I've never heard them on Avantgarde speakers but on others they've always sounded...
