| Upgrade Spendor A4 to D7.2? I'm not sure you are going to get there with the Rega but the loudspeaker upgrade is worthwhile. I would do that then add a subwoofer and see if that gets what you want. | |
| odd question about stand-mount speakers No harm in trying it out. | |
| Cured My Lack of Bass Problem I don't know about the 13s but my Electromotion ESLs played great with my 25 watt and 35 watt tube amps. | |
| I feel it is time to upgrade my 1977 system....... I don't think you need to spend anywhere near 18K to make a significant improvement to your system.

| Tough situation - need advice on modern (or refurbished Equivalent) Advent Loudspeakers KLH or Lintons. | |

| KT66s in place of KT88 tubes Generally no. Plate voltage is vastly different. | |
| Is the XA25 a realistic option for LRS’s? I've had a similar set-up before. If the bass is good, you should be OK. | |
