| Monos, Stereo or Multi-Ch for HT and Music I’m a dedicated 2 channel guy. You have fine loudspeakers but your Marantz is holding you back. I would get a Parasound A21+ (or multiples if you need them) and a really good preamp/control center. That will take your system to a new level. The L... | |
| Which preamp for Quicksilver mono amps? The Cary SLP-98 F1 pre was a fine system when matched to the Mini-Monos. Or for a more budget system I might want to try the QS preamp. Mike Sanders knows good sound. | |
| Need A 10-30 watt Tube Power Amp, Lower Heat Output, Which Sounds Great, Under $1500 Used Quicksilver Mini-Mono or Mid-Mono. I personally think they are the finest amps I ever owned. | |

| Subwoofer Advice ."@russ69 are you saying move on from the MLs and hook up with some Infinity RS1B towers or Tektons?" No, the ML13A are fine speakers. My brother ran ML Requests for a long time. A stereo pair of towers does amazing things. You will get entirely ... | |

| Spades vs. Banana plugs ?? Spades seem to always come loose. Bananas for ease of use. | |
| I'll welcome myself back after a brief hiatus "Think of those early days before FM radio and you liked to ride in the car and listen to AM. " For me it was my Dad’s mono rig. A small Bogen tube integrated, a 45 player, and A University coax in a custom cabinet (think 1950s). Dang thing took ... | |
| I'll welcome myself back after a brief hiatus "Glad you’re back. Sorry about the hearing loss." "Hey Russ! Glad you’re still here. I admire your spirit of adapting and not giving up - it sets a good example." Thanx guys | |
| I'll welcome myself back after a brief hiatus Yes, mostly age related but they also cut the nerves for my cochlear implant and that sealed the deal. | |
| Those magical days when the HVAC is off Night time is the right time. | |
| Amplifier Power tubes - important to sound? And I was feeling bad because I needed 12 tubes. If you like the way it sounds now, stock tubes might be the best budget replacement. It you want more with great top end extension kT-88 Gold Lions sound very good. Yes, power tubes are everything. | |
| Does Anyone Know What These Are? Look like mic stand swivel to me? |
