Thanks for all the responses. I’m glad to see I’m not the only one here who has enjoyed this product.
Compared to many of the posters here I know that I’m very inexperienced in this subject matter, and have only found myself hooked on audio for about a year now.
Getheleadout, I'm also using the 482i, which I assume is similar. My friend has the 482, and I did not notice any difference between the two models other than the color of the case. (But, I did test them about 6 weeks apart). I may take up your advice with the DBX range expander. If it does not work in the above mentioned system, I have a couple other’s scattered around the house that it may help out in.
I do keep another tube system that I take the direct path minimalist approach in.
I'm keeping an open mind in all of this, and experimenting with many different products. I do not yet know exactly what type of sound I like yet. I’m finding that various components behave differently in my systems, and what works great for one of them, can sound absolutely terrible in another.
I starting to believe that it’s nearly impossible to set up a single system that excels in all types of music, but I have not wandered into the territory of anything that is really considered high end yet.
