I really wanted a Parasound 1500a but I can not get my hands on one. I have a B&K Pro 10 pre amp and a Velodyne ULD 15S7 sub (which may not work with this set up but I am restoring it anyway because it is beautiful!).
I need an amp and IC cables... Any suggestions?
And when can I add a profile picture?

No, but if that's what you want, there's no harm in going bigger. -

I don't believe that is common ground yeah?
I have a GFA-545 mk1 on my 2Bs and it pushes them effortlessly. For what it's worth.

You know, it's interesting I just spoke with Polk while ordering an ic cable and he agreed with you DaveHo. I have a Adcom 535 series 2. I'll try this first. I may get back to you on the 545. Thank youPolk Audio SDA SRS 2.3 TL

I have recently acquired a Musical Fidelity 3.2 integrated amp.
It is a dual mono amp and is not a common ground amp. I have a Dreadnaught from the last group buy, and it solves the non common ground issue for the 2B's and some other SDA's.
My 2B's have never sounded better. I have heard things in song tracks that I have never heard previously and vocals are so much clearer and refined. I use JRiver and a PS Audio Nuwave DSD DAC."Sometimes you have to look to the past to understand where you are going in the future"Anger is just anger. It isn’t good. It isn’t bad. It just is. What you do with it is what matters.

I swear I called musical fidelity and inquired about the a3.2 being common ground and they said it was. I used it with some 2Bs for a while and nothing caught fire. Maybe I was lucky?
