Is Spiral Groove still in business?
I have located Allen, sort of. At least my dealer has, but I am not really sure how. I have not however recieved the parts I need, yet. According to Allen, Covid has made things a little difficult for him and his work shop. It should be possible t...

VITUS SM-100 amp. What do they sound like?
They sound great! Especially with Coltrane. But I'm not really good at describing sound, I'll leave that to the real "experts". Suffice to say that Coltrane - SM-100 combo is very fast and dynamic. And great... I never heard the ML 33H so I cannot... 
Dartzeel or Tenor for Marten Coltrane speakers???
Talking about cost, Jorma has also rewired his pair internally with Prime. An option which I think Marten can do on request. 
Dartzeel or Tenor for Marten Coltrane speakers???
The Coltrane sounds great with Vitus, Jorma Koski uses his modded Coltranes with Vitus with great results. I also like them with Krell.Lamm wouldn't be my first choice, even though I've just heard the Coltranes with the 2.2. The Coltranes are not ...

Peak Consult Zoltan vs Sonus faber Amati Annivers
Sorry, saw that the question was about Amati... In my opinion the Zoltan is the better speaker, but it is much more expensive, at least in Europe. 
Peak Consult Zoltan vs Sonus faber Amati Annivers
The Zoltan is a wonderful speaker, much more neutral than than the Stradivari, which is more like an instrument. I would also say that the bass is different where the Strad seems to give out more bass. But the images that the Zoltan has is pure ma... 
cables between lamm and wilson watt puppy 7
You could always go with a used pair of Valkyrja. The difference between Valkyrja and Valhalla isn't all that big, atleast with the speaker cables. I also have Valhalla IC and use them with great results with Valkyrja. You may also want to check o... 
Wadia direct into amp, Sound a bit too lean??
Two things, I don't think Wadia doubles the voltage into balanced IC. Also it's possible to run with a RDP-1 even though it's not a transport and dac. Just use the digital out and in. Wadia is built for this purpose considering the clocklinked I/O 
Wadia 861 vs. 861 SE
I have a 860 with GNSC mods with a SE drive. The SE-drive makes a pretty big difference that I can recommend. If you can afford it, go for the SE.RJA: Have Wadia been out of business again? Anyone else who knows anything about this?
