I have ued solid state gear in the past. NAD pre and with a NAD 2200 amp. Also I have used various yamaha gear. A friend let me borrow a pair of asl waves. I thought over all they sounded better than the NAD 2200. I do miss the midbass and bass punch of that amp. Shocked that a 100 dollar tube amp sounded better to my ear than SS gear. I decided to continue with tube gear. On a budget I bought the AMC CD player with tube output (sounds good when working). Next I found an AMC preamp with tubes. This piece also sounds good. Overall to me the tubes with high efficiency speakers is the ticket. ( I would really like to venture into set 2a3 or 300b etc.) The velodyne sees to uses in my HT room with quintets (Talk about a mismatch) and as added punch in the music room. I listen to mostly guitar driven rock such as Tom Petty, Dire Straits, Clapton Dave Alvin and punk music Social Distortion Rammones etc. The velodyne adds extra punch.

Have you had problems with your amc cd player? Mine has been sent for service once. It quit playing saying no disc. Now approx 2mos latter same thing. Andy

Terry, Ports on the floor? Do you mean without the risers?

This is probablly answered elsewhere, but I will ask here anyway. How would one biamp the cornwall.

I purchased an amc tube preamp on audiogon. The previous owner upgraded the tubes. I think it will be a nice replacement for my solid state NAD. I wanted to purchase a wright 3.5 on audiogon It sold before I could purchase. Hey and experiences with the ASL Tulip?

The wave8's sound suprisingly good with the cornwalls IMHO For another perspective of wave8 with cornwalls check out Collins review on enjoy the music. com. I am thinking of moving two cornwall into another room and purchasing an integrated if so I will have two wave 8's for sale.

push pull vs set opinions / suggestions / recomendations for cornwalls. I am new to tubes looking to upgrade from asl wave 8.
