Sounds good. I'll be using it with a WireWorld Stratus PC into a Porter Port Hubbell outlet. I have my sources plugged into an APC H15. Thanks for the tips.
Cheers,
Scott

As above :-)
Get a Pass labs/Firstwatt Likely the Last Amp you will ever want.
As a pre IF you want one? .. Buy 10k Cheap Chinese Dact 'clone attentuator (s), wire them into a Passdiy.com B1 buffer (~50$)
And never give amplifications a further thought.
Imo :-) B&W speakers Ain't the world's best.
So those may then show up as being limited though.
G luck

Well, with my speaker budget none of my options would be considered "worlds best". I only considered speakers I could easily demo.
I listened to Golden Ear Triton Sevens, PSB X2T, Monitor Audio Silver 8 and my 683 S2s. I almost went with the MA Sliver 8s but they cost 20% more are harder to drive and the B&Ws for me had better bass (quality and quantity) and the treble was more to my liking. The MAs had a sweeter mid-range though.

I have a pair of MA RX2. Very nice but not as natural sounding.
So far the best speaker I've had are my SR-71. Opps did I mention them again. If I mention them again I'll be banned!
Are you in the market for DIY kits. What kind of music do you listen to? If it's Jazz and rock you should check out the A26 kit over at Madisound.
Thanks, airtime. No DIY at this time but I'd like to in the future. Over the years I have eyed that A26 a few times . I love that 10" woofer.
I think my first DIY speaker would be more this speed though:
Cheers,
Scott
I wish I had the room to use those.
Take your time with speakers. I auditioned a number of them and the MA were good, actually the best in that showroom. But my SR-71 are just perfect and my MA sit in a closet. I understand you want full range. Best of luck finding them and DO let us know what you end up with.
