| PS Audio PowerPlant P20 better than pure direct AC I get during the night? I have a P10 and found it was not good to run my amps thru it.

| Which Magnepans for my small room? I upgraded from 1.7i's to 3.7i's. My cats gave a little attention the the 1.7's. I now use tall scratching posts on either sides of the speakers and they have not touched them. They use the scratching posts all day long.There is a product calle... | |

| Power Amp advice Personally I went from a beastly class D to a Pass XA60.8 for my 3.7i's. The sound is sweet as long as I dont play LOUD. My room is over 500 square feet. Quality over quantity every time. I found this at the review below, maybe you can save th... | |
| Any way I could have damaged my speakers? Sorry to hear of your loss.I made a boo boo a few weeks ago. I was trying to figure out why I did not have sound after changing around some interconnects. I had left the volume open on a preamp and changed sources, bone head move. At first I wa... | |
