| Amarra HiFi & HD Tracks Thanks for your help Gocubs999. I am using a MF V-Link 24/96 USB to SPDIF conversion onto a Krell HTS 7.1. The Krell DAC will handle up to 24/96 files without problem. | |
| What's your favorite Apple-based music program? I thought, if one uses Amarra HiFI with iTunes it is necessary too first convert HD FLAC files (24/96 and above) to AIFF? If this is done, the files are down coverted to 16/44.1 (or 16/48?) so they can play on iTunes? Is this correct? | |
| what speakers would you choose for a hometheater? FWIW; I have a N801, HTM1, N805 and ASW850 B&W setup driven by a Krell KSA-250 (L & R) and two Pioneer Elite M-91 (center and surround). Sounds perfect to me. In fact, my wife and I have just watched/listened to Adele live at the Royal Alb... | |

| So Many Apogees for sale, and so few takers Many years ago (20?) I remember hearing a pair of Apogee Divas, powered by two Krell KSA-250 amps, at a HiFi show in London. To this day, I still think these are the best sounding speakers I have ever heard. One day I plan to buy a restored pair o... | |

| Amplifiers:A Keeper for Life. Do you know of one ? My like new, refurbished Krell KSA250. Sounds about as good as it gets to me.
