Replacing JL Audio F112 v1
For years JL has been repairing the V1s for $400 including shipping. Did they stop doing this?   
Bookshelf speaker pairing with subwoofer
Yes…… budget.    500 bucks can get you something descent “normal” people would be amazed with! Not for most of us but…………. some guidance between x and x price wise might be helpful. In my opinion 2k and above gets into pretty good territory.   
$3500 floor standing speakers used. What would be your choice ?
2nd the Paradigm Founders. Really great speakers. Play well with tubes or ss. I have the 120h. Currently paired with a pass xa30.5 and tube preamp they are amazing. Also had them with an EL34 integrated and also very very good. You can find the 10... 
Speaker upgrade?
If you can find the original Paradigm Studio Monitors they are really impressive especially in the bass. The old Stereophile review is BS in my opinion, the low bass and mid bass is Strong but not slow and it’s impactful. Mids and highs are very n... 
All New Pure Audio ONE Integrated Amp Reviewed!
@highend666 ,   if you are truly not associated with the company at all or any of the other posts about new equipment you start and rave about with the !!!!! And the WOWz. What’s the deal?   
Can I assemble a decent system out of these components
Very descent system.   
Which sounds better 2 way or 3 way speaker design
2 ways with well integrated sub can sound really good. They don’t go that loud without being crossed over if bass heavy music.

Amp search
Parasound A21. Used probably $12-1400. Some watts class a, not sure how many but is definitely on the warm non mechanical side and one of the more tubey sounding ss amps I’ve heard. Only one I can think of with variable gain except the old Denon a... 
Downsizing from tower to bookshelf
I heard the bigger studio electrics at a local enthusiasts house when I was buying some speaker cables off him. They seemed to be very musical and do everything well. The owner and maker of Studio Electric lives 30 minutes from me. I’ve been meani... 
Streaming from a TV
IFI I-Purifier. Use that exact same setup on my system with toslink coming out of tv. Cheap and makes a huge difference. All you need for a situation like that IMO.    you use a Toslink to mini toslink and that end plugs into the side of the I Pu... 
Large speakers plus EQ, what have you done?
Current speakers Paradigm 120H. Powered woofers with room correction from 300h down. Without running the room correction still sound good but with it engaged much tighter more articulate bass. Non corrected sounds much more bloated boomy and loose...

10ft away a 55 inch will look too small IMO. I have a 65 OLED about 8 ft away and wish it was bigger. Best Buy for the next couple days has a Samsung 77 inch OLED for 1599 or 1699. It’s over half off. IMHO OLED is the only way to go.
