Has anyone heard the Audio Note AX-2 Signature?
the ax-2 is a stellar performer. Got great reviews here in Norway and was one of the true winners at a hifi-show about a month ago. 
Crossover component upgrade, DUELUND????
They are supposed to be the best around. I have only experience with their cables myself. Duelund components are used in Gryphon, and Peak Consult speakers. Read a review of their caps here:http://www.humblehomemadehifi.com/Cap.htmlBest Regards 
DK Design Review
Has absolutely nothing to do with DK I can assure you that. I know the Norwegian importer of DK products and he has sold about 10 pcs of the integrated amp. I am also from Norway and know the history with Electrocompaniet and Per Abrahamsen. Elect... 
What happened to my Rowland?
I would recommend you to take contact with Jeff Rowland Design Group. Send them an email. I have had a similar problem, and the cause was a faulty "plug in module". You can see them on each 8t boards. A big black box connected with two screws.

Jeff Rowland Model 8 - questions
That is very interesting Daveyf. I will try to get a new top-plate for the amp. Btw. my former message didn't turn out all that well it seems. What i wanted to say was that I think the amp needs at least 6 hours warm up, before it performs best. A... 
Jeff Rowland Model 8 - questions
At last someone responded to my thread :-)Thank you very much. My JR model 8 is up and running beautifully. It is one brute of an amp. It is playing extremely well, however it is getting pretty warm when playeing for long periods of time. But if I... 
Has anyone heard the new ARC Ref 3 Preamp?

Conrad Johnson Premier 5 or Premier 12 for ML
A friend of mine owns the cls2z and he has tried several amps for his speakers. The best he has tried, and still has is the Premier 5. You cannot go wrong. No subwoofer is needed. Also he uses a seriously modified Kora Eclipse as pre. 
DK Design users check out Writers Choice Awards
Yes it is a great product. I have listened to it once, and actually compared it to my JRDG model 8. Maybe even the DK design bested it. I used a crappy pre at the audiotion though. 
Copland 266 vs NAD 541i CDP
Yes it is. I am not sure whether I should email you or post it here. Maybe I can do both? This is a picture from the analogue board on my Copland cda288x. 3 tweaks are done here: First swap those 2 wima caps for 2 pcs. Mundorf Supreme silver/oil 0... 
Copland 266 vs NAD 541i CDP
If the selles says so, it's probably right. Yes I feel that it is an improvement. But! I havent heard the NAD. Maybe the first couple of hours when you listen to the copland you don't feel the improvement. That takes time. The musicality of these ... 
Copland 266 vs NAD 541i CDP
The copland is a great player. The 266 do not use K-Dacs. Only the 288 and 289 did. (PCM-63P). The 266 has 2 of them, and 288/289 has 4 pcs. The copland players look great, and are a nice piece of equipment. Make sure you change the "Clock" on the...
