Green Mountain Europa/Reference 3A DeCapo i
I purchased a set of Europas in January and am very happy with them. They are everything that others have described in reviews. I also auditioned a set of DeCapo I last summer when I was looking to replace a set of Athena AS-F2. At the same time I...

modified jolida 100, mh cd-25, or audio aero prima
I found the Sylvania black plate 3 mica to be the best followed by the GE. I replaced the power cord with one available from venhaus1.com and am using the DIY interconnect from the same website. I also found placing the CDP on a block of styrofoam...
