33.3 is now superior to 45
I love audiophilia! We get to buy the same thing over and over and over and over again. I got the LP, then the cassette, then the CD, then the remastered CD, then the SACD, then the remastered LP, then the remastered LP in 45 rpm and now! THE REMA... 
Upgrade from Verity Parsifal to Parsifal Encore??
Bjesien, in the first line of my post I mention the parsifal has gone through three upgrades, so yes, three generations. 1. Parsifal 2. Parsifal Encore 3. Parsifal Encore with new tweeter and no name change. Three upgrades. Then the ovation came o...

I thought I would weigh in on this. The original Parsifal has gone through three upgrades. The first was a tweeter upgrade, spike change and some changes to crossover, this garnered the "Encore" addition to the name. Later Verity changed the tweet...

Analog Audio of Minnesota, that is the only one I know of. They delivered an RI100 to me to demo recently, really went out the their way. 
Is Benz Micro no longer in business?
Thats a good question. I have heard that there are some real problems with supply and demand as well as service for exchanges as well as retips. I would really like to know as well and would welcome some pseudojournalist in the audio industry to p... 
verity audio parsifal
Bjesien, sorry for my long delay in reply, the thread was lost to me for awhile. I drive my Verity Parsifals with Herron Audio M1A amps which sit of Stillpoint Mini SS installed. I use a Herron VTSP-3 r2 pre-amp and the VTPH-2 phono stage. All cab...
