  1. I have read lot about using a center speaker with Khorns. 

     

    I am still confused whether there is a different recommendation (speaker and/or center channel signal propagation) for music versus HT?

     

    Is PWK's L & R channel "summing" better for music versus center channel produced under 5.1/7.1 etc. home theater processor?

     

    I am only really interested in music.  What are folks using for the center channel source (I will be using an LS center)?

    Nothing comes close to the Bottlehead

    Believe it or not, that one also sounds fantastic with the old Shure V15 type IV too (no step up required; I also have had good luck with the Bottlehead Seduction phono stage)

  3. I will point out what you already know; The variables in sound depending on the combinations really require the ability to try out a prospective preamp with the ability to return after careful listening over several days.

     

    I have a 300b PP and a set of EL34 SETs.  I have had excellent results with passive preamps, tubes and SS preamps with both; all very different sounding.

     

    All sounding better than using just my Benchmark DAC volume control, even given the shorter signal path.

     

    Just my 2 cents worth.

     

    Here's a link to a very nice passive preamp that won't set you back a lot of $:
