| Acurus DIA Ahh, a rhetorical question! Does this merit an answer? I suffer from Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. Any unnatural movement of my wrist can be annoying. I have 3 preamps hooked-up, in the living room. I also have, and have used, 2 integrateds and a 40W r... | |

| Acurus DIA Just happened to come across your thread. Sorry so late, and hoping you`ll see the response. I do not have enough comparative experience with components, but will try to give what little "Inf Op" I have. I did buy the Panache intg instead of the D... | |
