What is wrong here.. on Audiogon?

I don't get it. I ask a legitimate question about help on picking a preamp for my Pass Labs amp. I get maybe 10 responses. Some other guy who apparently is not a Pass Labs fan, has a thread on Amps with lights/meters and which sound better? He gets 50 comments.. Is this an example of reality TV's effect on society? Maybe someone will become a hit on here telling fart jokes.. Just something to think about!

Thank you sir. Much appreciated. The gain for the LS3 is 18 with the ability to change it to 10 with a resistor and capacitor change. At this juncture, I'm kinda neutral on the Audio Research but I would like to have a remote control and my version of the LS3 doesn't have one.

You hijacked your own thread and are now getting more preamp advice.  Nicely done!

For what it’s worth my Pass Aleph J has the same gain as the XA25 afaik but the Aleph J only puts out 25 watts. For whatever reason when I use a unity gain preamp I can only turn the volume dial to 10 o’clock before it’s too loud but with a pure passive it’s past 1 o’clock. I do have some efficient Klipsch speakers though and my dac puts out 3v.
