Levinson 383 integrated vs Moon i-7 integrated


I'm looking at buying a good integrated.
I've heard the Moon i-7 and the BAT VK300x.
A friend of mine said to look at a used Levinson 383 integrated.
My speakers are Verity "Fidelios", Harmonic Tech's "Magic One" XLR interconnects.
Any feedback will help.
Thanks.Sally

I second the Moon gear and feel that you will not be disappointed with it's power and grace.I have listened to 2W-5 LE's using both stats ML's and Avalons 2ways.The soun d is awesome and I feel that the new stuff maybe even better!!Hope this helps Dennis
Sallycaine,
I am with you totally on the lack of substance in the Rowland design.The Sim on the other hand is a substantial 70lbs plus and boasts one of the most refined circuits called the Lynx, as well as a plitron based chassis.The Sim does need very good power source and is best suited to upper level cables ( preferably balanced).If you want to own a really high quality piece then this maybe the one for you.Hope this helps Dennis
