Aesthetix IO Sig V 2nd power supply & Lamm LP2 del

I have having a listen to the Aesthetix IO sig at the moment and it sounds very good. Not as quiet as my Xono, but has that added flow that tubes do.

What does adding the 2nd power supply bring to the sonic equation, say vs buying some expensive NOS tubes??

Lastly, For anyone who has heard, what are the sonic differences between the Io sig and the Lamm Lp2 deluxe??

cheers

Hi,

I have an IO Sig with 2 supplies & volume controls. Its just over 2yrs old so the Mills resistor issue is not a concen with my unit.

I run a Koestu RSP which is .2mV and noise, with careful NOS tube selection, has not been an issue in my set up with re-worked Quad ESLs.

I have had a recent problem with one Power-supply failing(for the 2nd time) & am awaiting the tech's response on this. It was a capacitor last time. So while the sound has bested, to my ears, PH7, lamm, steelhead,ART... the verdict is out on reliability. Does anyone have an recent email contact for Jim White directly?

Thanks, Nkj
