Dear Samuel33:

Notre ami Mike Lavigne a raison et connait tres, tres bien le sujet. Surtout avec darTZeel a Geneve, le choix est d'autant plus facil. J'ai deux components Audo Research et ils font un bon produit, mais ils ne sont pas du tout au meme rang de darTZeel ou de Tenor. Le Manley est tres peu fiable et mange des lamps -- laissez tomber.

I better stop before the monitors get peaved.

Bonne chance.
