Audio Aero Capitole 24/192 vs the MKII version cdp
As I have been told the Mk II improves greatly in the bass region and increased resolution across the board.I am not sure there is a Mk III version coming out, perhaps it is the Mk II SE (special edition that the North American importer is offerei... 
H2O Signature Stereo vs H20 Signature Mono Amps
Barrelchief,One correction on the above. I beleive the Signature Monoblocks retail for $5500. The other prices sound correct.As for anyone comparing the Signature Stereo to the Signature Mono's I would doubt there would be more than one or two, si... 
New H20 Signature S250
Lloydf,Feel free to drop me an email and I could give you more info on other preamps I have used as well, however - in a nutshell I think the First Sound Presence Deluxe Mk II would be the best of both worlds of the two preamps you have just audit... 
Digital Amp's
Eldartford, Muralman mentioned Henry trying to get good sound out of the 1000ASP, and Henry had told me the same. To expand a bit upon what Vince stated above, the key differences between the two ICE modules 500ASP (in H2o can be purchased without... 
New H20 Signature S250
Lloydf-How many hours do you have on your amp now? I ask because in my case (similar dynamic speaker load as yours) the amps seemed to take much longer to break in than those with more demanding loads (such as those driving Apogee's)...I experienc... 
Best Tube Amp For Meadowlark Blue Heron 2
I have heard the Blue Heron 2's sound good with VTL 450 monoblocks as well as Rouge Audio's Zeus. I preferred the sonics of the VTL over the Rogue, however they are in different price categories. I have owned the Quicksilver V4 monoblocks, however... 
Just upgraded to the DK VS-1 Signature
Please tell us all the amps you've heard under $20,000 so we know what you are comparing this to. Also, what is your other equipment? For example, speakers, cd player, turntable, cabling, etc., etc. 
Digital Amp's
Thanks Vince. I didn't mean to sound like I was putting words in your mouth. I was familiar with your power amp progression, however I am not certain others are. I think most don't realize the people buzzing about the H2o's have tried a good many ... 
Digital Amp's
Even better yet, Muralman, as you have owned a quality class A amp (not the best out there, but respectable none the less) why not in a nutshell explain where you thought your Class A amp excelled.For example when you owned the Pass Labs X600 mono... 
VPI Scoutmaster or Nottingham Space Deck...?
I replied with a neutral and "politically correct" response earlier as you will have many people on both sides of both tables you had listed.In my personal experience I have heard both and at the price point felt the Spacedeck with Ace Space arm w... 
VPI Scoutmaster or Nottingham Space Deck...?
Both great tables and value for the money. Do a search on the forum threads as there is much info and they both present sonics differently... you will most likely find at least two dozen members swearing each of these are the best bang for the buc... 
Amp for new Meadowlark Krestel 2's ?
I have used the Unison Research Unico with the Ospreys with a Jolida JD-100a both retubed with NOS Mullards... very, very musical combination.IMHO a Unico or Jolida integrated will be more musical than a Musical Fidelity or Bryston... both of whic... 
Sonic frontiers sfs 80 or 160
I have owned the SFS-80 and very comfortably driven the Martin Logan SL3's... Actually that combo had magic that I have found hard to reproduce until throwing MUCH more money at the components. I have also heard the SL3's driven by the SFM-160's w... 
Question for First Sound Owners
I am using the H2o Signature Monoblocks with the First Sound Presence Deluxe Mk II and am very pleased with the synergy. There is a review of the amps on http://www.6moons.com if the amp is of interest to you...
