        Yeah, STA200 sounds great with them. Haven't had enough time to decide whether I like it or CA-1000 better though

        Nice! Did you pay full price? Steven will often sell at b-stock prices.

      Anyone bi-amping their Phil BMR's? How big of a difference does it make?

        if you have suitable amps on hand, might as well give it a try.
        How much would Dennis charge?

      Anyone have experience with a Yamaha CA-1000? Any good?

        I like it a lot, but I'm a bit of a Yamaha fan boy. Be careful on the voltage, it was either Japan only or mostly. The CA-1010 is far more common...

        Yamahas of the mid to late 70s are powerful with a little bit of treble roll.

      Any recommendations for good relatively affordable speaker cables? Using Blue Jeans now but I felt like their RCA interconnects were lacking

        Their Rca interconnects are lacking a bit. Other good $30 RCA cables sound a bit better. I think if I had to do it over, I would get some nice 12 gauge twisted type cable from a decent source. I use something from VH Audio, it is his twisted pair stranded 12 gauge with 4 total legs for 9 gauge overall. Kind of overkill but not too expensive and has stood the test of time.

        I need to run some network cable through my house and I might as well set aside a few feet for speaker cabling. Any reason why a Cat 6 version of this cable would be any different? Also I noticed it's a shielded cable, what do you do with the shielding?

      Does anyone know if the Gen 5 USB upgrade for the Gungnir Multibit will also work in the Bifrost? Or are they model specific?

        Don't quote me, but I think the boards are different for each tier. I swore I saw a picture somewhere showing all three different cards.

        The new Gen 5 board is an upgrade for any Bifrost, Gungnir, or Yggdrasil with the Gen 1, 2, or 3 USB inputs. Just when I thought that it might be common to all three units, I looked at the box mine came in and it is labeled "GEN 5 USB UPGRADE KIT -BIFROST"
