Here is my current set up.... Hafler 9303 power amp Rotel RC 1570 preamp Cambridge Audio Azur 550C CD player Paradigm Prestige 75F You can see that any component I have must be less than 14 inch in depth. I thought about the Rotel RB-1552 mk II, but I think it will be marginally better...

I am seriously considering a SACD player (Marantz Yamaha) or multi format player such as the Oppo UDP 205. The only drawback is that that SACD cost twice as much as the CD. I have to do an A/B comparison between the SACD and CD versions of a track this Tuesday when I visit an audio shop in Austin.

I am a dedicated 2-channel stereo 100% music guy. Source is CD. I don't stream. Love to be able to touch and read the CD sleeve notes. Grew up during the 70s and 80s, converted to CDs in the 80s and never looked back. Cannot understand the resurgence of the LP record. On weekends, the stereo is...

Thanks to all responses. Amp working fine....wanted something new and also to setup a second system in my office. It is a Hafler 9303.

Hi PENG, I am curious about your thoughts on Anthem. I know they are pricey. But I will get at least 20% off of list price. How does your Anthem sound? There is a 3rd amplifier which I am thinking of which is the Bryston 3B Cubed. I know this may be too much (in terms of "stature") to drive...

Thank you for your response. I just have an old amp (>20 years), it is working fine. Just needed something new and thought it would be cool to have new gear . Also, I am thinking of moving the older amp to setup a second 2-channel rig at my home office. Since I am getting a new amp, I would like...

I have the opportunity to upgrade my current stereo power amplifier which is >20 years old. My choices are limited to those that has a depth of 13.5 inches or less because of the cabinet which the amplifier will go into. The power amp will be driving a pair of Paradigm Prestige 75F. As I do not...

Hello, Need help here....I cannot decide and I cannot audition one of the 2 amps. Can you tell me based on the specifications, which of the power amp is 'better' and why? Thanks for your help. Amplifier 1: Amplifier 2:

Hi, I am just beginning to venture in HT, even though I have been an audio 2.0 user for the longest time. I have a Yamaha RX-V477 receiver set up in our media room. It is primarily for my kids Xbox One and the occasional DVD/Blue Ray movie. I connected the xbox One to the HDMI 1 input of the...

Just cleaning....I thought since it is working fine.

Thank you for your replies. A followup question, you think $150 is a fair price to clean up the amp and pre-amp?

I have a Hafler 9303 power amp and 915 pre-amp. Both have been working fine since 1995. Both equipment have never been cleaned or maintained in the inside since I bought them way back. Is there a need to "maintain" the stereo equipment after so long? I am thinking like dusting, cleaning the...
