My pre is a Luxman C-900u. I also have a Modwright Oppo 205 as my digital source. Yes, the SPL is cheaper than the Sugden, especially now that the "The Music Room" is running a special on the 1200.

I was looking for some information in the Audiogon archives regarding SPL amps & preamps. There isn’t a lot but what there is has mostly been removed by the Moderator.
Has anyone had experience with these products and if so, could you please provide some feedback on both their amps & preamps, in particular the Performer s800 amp and the Director MK2 preamp which has a built-in DAC?
And, why do you think these threads have been removed?

@grk - nice and to the point system, Thanks! |
(Terry London), I was wondering if you could provide some feedback. I have read many of your well written reviews of amplifiers from Coda, SPL, LTA, etc. I know that you initially liked the Coda 8 and then upgraded to the 16. But recently you seemed to have sold them and moved on to Coda 5.5. Your component list also mentions SPL 1200. I am intrigued by this amplifier, especially because it is “ Made in Germany”. I have high regards for German components and my recent acquisition of the T+A DAC 200 only cements my belief. A you please throw some light by comparing the Codas with the SPL. Also, do the fans inside the SPL turn ON once a while and do they bother you. I had read a long time ago, how the Coda brand had a falling with a US rag and were not reviewed much here in the States. But I understand that they have a large following in the Europe. Not sure how true this is anymore, since I am seeing a lot of press for. Idea these days. I am looking to change my amplifiers from a Parasound A21 for my ProAc D48R loudspeakers. |
