| Newbie Q about DACs - built in or separate? The DAC in your Mac is not bad at all in my opinion. My Dad's 8950 has the DA2 and it sounds pretty good. I would start by listening to your Luxmans analog outs and compare to the internal DAC. Then possibly demo a DAC or two in your system... | |
| Quicksilver silver 60 amplifiers I drove my Revel M106 with the Mid Monos and they had plenty of juice in a medium sized room at generous levels. They have been driving Heresy and Forte for the last few years. Those amps were built in 2013 and have had a lot of use. Nev... | |
| Decware Sarah 300B Amp? So if I wait 4.5 years and don't like it I can return it within 30 days? And it will only cost $450 to try it? Or cost $450 because I've grown impatient or die ? Sign me up. | |

I set my Dad's MA8950 with an Anthem MRX 540 and it is seamless integration The MRX's trigger out goes to Mac's control trigger input and when you turn the MRX on it puts th... | |

| Decware Sarah 300B Amp? Those amps are $$$…. Maybe not a fair comparison. I’d be pretty disappointed if I waited 3 plus years for an amp and it looked like that Sarah on the inside. | |
| Decware Sarah 300B Amp? Cheaply constructed, plastic stand-offs are used as nuts ... $10 potentiometer. Silkscreen came out wrong so they just flipped the top plate over ... $5k ? Seriously? | |
| Positive customer service experience I also had a great experience with TMR, they made a mistake and corrected it 110% and then some. Have purchased again since, got a great deal on an integrated amp and will deal with them again . | |
| Need to replace my Sonic Frontiers Power 3's I had an Anthem Amp 1 , a SF product at the time. Whenever a tube failed , it took out a cathode resistor. I called Sonic Frontiers and Chris answered. He was kind enough to send me a few resistors. They were easy to replace. Take the cage... | |

| Revel Performa3 Cabinet Defect Sorry to hear that. I owned a pair of M106 and while they looked beautiful I think the bean counters at Harmon are ruining the brand. They sounded good , which is /was paramount but after a few years the rubber trim at the top started to lift. ... | |
