The best amp for $2k tube, solid state or hybrid
PrimaLuna Dialogue 5. 
Which tubed pre to "flesh out" my mids???
Save your money and buy an Eastern Electric Minimax then experiment with different tubes. This thing is a Chameleon. 
Any experiences of the Mystere line?
I emailed the company and they contacted Upscale Audio, their U.S. distributor ) to get in touch with me but it never happened. From what I read in their site, this is supposed to be PrimaLuna's high end line.

Best sounding Krell ?
Hi Stevechan,I've been following the discussion. As I stated earlier I went ahead and purchased a Plinius SA 50. This is a very good amplifier. The truth is there's a lot of good equipment out there and it all boils down to personal preference. My...

Comparing Ultraverve to CJ 16 or Supratek preamps
Nakolawala,Can you tell me how do the sound of the modified UltraVerve compared to the stock one ? I'm interested to know the differences besides the remote control. Who knows, I might upgrade mine if I feel is a step up.

Dave b,Can you tell us exactly what is that the MIT AC2 does to the 400xi ? Does it tighten the bass, extend the frequencies extremes, adds speed, blacker background, cavernous soundstage? What exactly is the amp doing now that it didn't do before...

The Plinius SA 50 is deep and controlled in the bass with good imaging also. The presentaion is not forward but inline with the speakers. The highs are nice ( not hard ) even though not the most extended. The midrange is warm and detailed. You are...

Well, I have been reading every now and then. I have to admit though, that I didn't get a Krell. I went with Plinius, sorry Krell fans but the price was right. Maybe down the road I'l try a Krell but for now i'm pretty impressed with the Plinius S...
