Coincident Linestage vs CJ CT5 or Allnic L-3000

Pap, I've had mine in the CSL for a couple of days now. Preliminarily, I like what I hear, but I'm going to burn these in for a couple weeks before doing an A/B/C with the Hi Fis and original Shuguangs.

Hi Brownsfan,
I look forward to your impressions.

Please keep us posted Brownsfan.

I was about to order the PSVane tubes only to find out that they are "standard" now. I should be reading forums more.
Well, Brownsfan, my eyes are on you now. Patience, patience.

Drdavid, regarding the AC cables on Coincident. We could ask Vetterone if he ever tried top Echole cables on his Coincident. Echole makes top cables of reference quality. I know some experienced audiophiles who audiotioned and praised Echole Obsession and Obsession Signature. Obsession is roughly comparable in quality to Argento Flow and NBS Black Label II with which I fed my CSLS and Franks MK2, while Obsession Signature goes further and higher.

Prices to put things in perspective, all retail:

- Echole Obsession 4,700
- Echole Obsession Signature 8,300
- Echole Omnia 19,300
- Argento Flow 3,400
- NBS Black Label II 6,000

I yet have to hear Coincident AC, how long did it take to burn in, 600 hours as recommended?

Brownsfan,
Hope you are enjoying the new tubes.
Did you get the 101D-L or 101D? Grant Fidelity doesn't seem to have the latter in stock.
