A bit of mixed reviews Mikey, some absolutely love it, others not so much. Just wondering if anyone here has picked one up and their thoughts. I'm fairly certain, it's a bit of a departure from their CR sound found in many of their other pieces.

Drew.... Do you drink coffee ? If not, start...it will relax you. Cheaper than weed too. Just a tip from your Uncle Tony.

Congrats man, see...who says you have to spend the kids college fund on cables. Nice grab, enjoy.

Have you heard the Snappers ? I thought their price tag was out of whack to the sound they produced. Good sound, just not that good.

If I may make a suggestion gents, try and get a mix of say 5 interconnects all with different designs, different copper, etc, and if possible different price brackets. Just my .02, have fun.

Any of you guys meet up at this show ? Where's the pics man ? Nobody gave Micah a wet willy ?

We probably should have told you to temper your expectations. A tube buffer is just that, a buffer. It isn't going to be the same as a stand alone tubed pre amp.

Many different forms of ribbon tweeters, the key is in the implementation and how well that's done. Some do it well, some not so much. I haven't met a cheap speaker with a ribbon tweeter that did do it well. Usually the better implementations com…

The speaker connections on the back of a regular subwoofer are for the signal part only, so it interacts with the crossover in the subwoofer. The amplifier in a subwoofer is for the actual woofer in the sub, that's it, nothing else. The HT in a b…

Just wait....see how you like the Parasound with it. You may not want or need to spend more. If you do though, go the tube route. Solid state Pre amps in that price range are not going to be too much of a difference sound wise.

Your out of luck. You need an amplified signal for the speakers to work. That's what the receiver was for. The TV can't do that or your sub.

You can set up another pair of speakers on the B channel of the receiver, but they won't have the benefit of the subwoofer.
