DQ-10, QUAD, Sound Lab, WAMM,Sequerra NF

I have heard the Quad ESL 63 and the WAMM in the same room on different occaisions. I have heard several systems in the $20K and up range including sound labs, ML statements, etc. The WAMM is on a different level-the only thing I have heard that even approaches it would be the IRS. Listening to the WAMM play a classical piece by a string quartet was the ONLY time I have thought I was actually listening to a live event when listening to a hifi system and this, by the way, was in 1986. I can only imagine what the current version must sound like, but there are probably some other challengers that have surfaced over the years. By the way, the grand slams I heard were a disappointment.

I agree with some of the thoughts above. Have had the DQ-10 and many others...but like the soundstage on Magnepan MG-20 better than anything I have heard or owned.

How about the Tympani Series ? Are they any good ?

I have had the older Tympani 1D and would suggest the current 1.6 or 3.6 over them. Again, from DQ-10 to Quads to any of the ones mentioned above....you are in very good company. None of these are a choice between good and bad.. ...the luxury of many good choices. Best of luck.

yet another stupid, meaningless thread by cdcdcdcdcdcdcdcdcd. cut it out; you're degrading the quality of this site to a level below mediocrity.
