| VAC 160iSE integrated with NOLA speakers Wrm57 I can't say that the outperformance is night and day. The 300.1a was certainly beautiful sounding, the best I had heard till then. And I may not have had all the updates. I ran the amp in fixed mode and used the preamp's volume controls. I a... | |
| EXPERIENCED VAC USERSmost bang for the buck Hullo Liszt458:In case you are still interested in opinions on this question. I would recommend the new integrated VAC160iSE.

| Review: Concert Fidelity DAC-040 DA converter Hi:FYI, to those who might be considering the use of 12bh7a/12bh7 tubes as I had been, I was just informed by Mr. Tsuda himself that these are not recommended for the DAC-040. BTW I am now using some Tung Sol 12AU7s and they are certainly very muc... | |
| Review: Concert Fidelity DAC-040 DA converter Hullo:I am a complete novice in the use and rolling of of tubes. But I too am lucky enough to have one of these wonderful CF DAC-040s. I notice that some people are using Tung Sol 12AU7, 12bh7 or 12bh7a with it. I have found the Tung Sol 5670 to w... |
