Just out of curiosity, what color/veneer are they? Solid Natural Bamboo. No veneer on Ascends.

jcparks Full Audioholic Jul 2, 2014 #22 It is a tough decision to let go of something you may like, especially with an item like speakers. If you really do like them you may consider buying a nice 2 channel amplifier and using them as a high end 2.0 computer speaker set up and possibly adding a decent sub later on down the road... Sometimes though you just gotta ask yourself, "Am I really going to use these speakers?" If the answer is no, then it is probably time to let go. The initial shock of losing them may last a few days but after that you probably wont even miss them.

ematthews Audioholic General Jul 2, 2014 #26 I've had this rack for a while. No copy here but maybe all the other new items qualify. Note all the old items on that rack.

ematthews Audioholic General Jul 3, 2014 #29 You know. Something came up this morning that I could do before selling my Marantz gear too. I was thinking since I don't have the need for a sub and by pass controls on the preamp... I could use my Marantz PM8004 as a Preamp connected to the ATI amp. I could sell off the P5 for more than the Marantz.... I will have to hook up the Marantz tonight to see how it works as a pre amp. To be honest, I really shouldn't hear any difference.
