Benchmark AHB2 Amplifier, opinions and competition
Bringing this thread up due to PS Audio going direct, this, no more deep dealer discounts. I was hoping to have funds for the PSA BHK 250 by the end of the year. However, that has changed and now there’s only 2 weeks left for dealer orders. My pre... 
How much discount typically for a new MC275 to expect from a dealer?

Review of TEAC NT-505
Is there a fixed volume output setting for using the 505 as a Dac only (feeding and outboard preamp) or do you just turn volume control up to 100%? 
Any word when Yamaha M-5000 amp will hit the U.S.
Anybody in the US stocking these yet? I cannot find any info 
Benchmark 1, 2 & 3
Wow, many businesses would try to get you to buy a new unit. Good for Benchmark  
Cocktail Audio's New and latest X50pro Audiophile Music Streamer/server...Any Love?
