We're semi retiring in a couple years and moving to a small cabin. Looking to simplify.
The line magnetic's im looking at are the 518ia and the 211ia. These are apparently...

Marco,
He did. I spoke to him a couple days ago.
It seems like the estate wants to sell each system as
a package deal. I'm just looking for the 275. He's going to check with them and see if they'll sell the one piece. Super nice guy and knows a ton about audio.
Picked up the c50 last weeken...

Marco,

Thanks!...

Marco,
Actually, what you're saying makes a lot of sense.
I have looked at the pass xa30.5 and its received incredible reviews and the new .8 seems to be a big improvement over the earlier model. I guess my thinking was with the x250 I would be sort of future proofing myself. Class A to ten watt...

Rotel 1068 pre
Klipsch epic cf-3's
Acoustic Research turntable
My choices on amps are a Mac M352 or a Pass Labs X250.5. I haven't h...
