| Vinyl ratings for audiophiles Yep, 9 times outta 10 the originals smoke the reissues. | |
| Accuphase Power Amps Hi Simon,Thanks for your reply. I figured that, but to be fair, the Accuphase is more expensive, but with good reason. So what would you say; replace the Bryston BP6P preamp first with the C-2420 or replace the Bryston 4BSST with an Accuphase A-70... | |

| Accuphase Power Amps Thanks Tls49. I call it as I see it. Accuphase is really special stuff. I didn't really like what they were putting out in the 80s (that could have been bad system matching,) but now it's really worth a serious audition and eventually purchase. | |
| B&W Matrix 801 Series II Yeah, congrats Wemfan! How do they sound? | |
| Accuphase Power Amps Nice speakers. I was considering those before I bought my JBLs. Anyway, what do I think? I think you're right with what you said! So, go for the P-4200, imo. Refer to the other thread for more of my comments... | |
| Accuphase Power Amps Thanks for agreeing Bvdiman...I value your opinion as you and Nvp are very knowledgeable about Accuphase as you guys actually own the stuff.I too have the Bryston 4BSST (not SST2) It's a good, solid amp with good bass, but the highest level of rea... | |
| Views on Siltech cables with Pass Labs Pre/Power Neotech silver might be worth a try too. | |

| B&W Matrix 801 Series II Hi Elee,Ok, no problem. Yes, I have read that too. Definitely the Matrix 800. Looking back, it was a bargain at the price (I believe $15k USD) and will probably blow away the current 800 series, or at least be very comparable. Yeah, you really nee... | |
| Accuphase Power Amps Hi Nvp, yes I know and understand all of that. However, it's better to have more power in most cases. It's my opinion that the P-4200 is the better amp overall. Of course the A-35 will sound richer and smoother, but the P-4200 wins in most areas. ... | |
| B&W Matrix 801 Series II Hi Elee,Thanks for the info. Would you say then that the S3 is the better speaker? | |
| Accuphase Power Amps Good question. However, the P-4200 should be able to drive most speakers out there, I'd say. | |
| B&W Matrix 801 Series II So which is he better version? Series II or III? I don't believe there's a definite consensus. From what I remember, I believe there's more in favor of Series II. I'm not sure why, though. | |
| Accuphase Power Amps Well, that's interesting you have that preamp, which is a Hell of a preamp by the way, because Accuphase demo-ed that with the P-4200 amp at the last CES in January. I think the cd player was the bottom of the line sacd player. Anyway, the sound w... |
