    WTB: Pioneer M-22

    I'm not sure I'd recommend it with 87dB efficient bookshelves. The amp can already sound soft with less power-hungry speakers.

    Holo Audio Red

    Troels Gravesen Faital 3WC-15 and Ellipticor A50-II

    I only had trouble with the Be tweeter. I never needed to think about integration after switching over to the ring radiator tweeter.
