| CJ Premier 10 - still competitive? Thanks all for you comments. The Premier 10 was delivered to my home last night to try it for a whole week. It sounds very good (just 1 hour listening..) with all the virtues of a tube preamp (lush, musical, timbre) and better bass definition than... | |
| Passive/Active preamps: pros and cons.... Passive preamps have some sonical benefits compared with active ones butat a cost, passive designs are very transparent, clean midrange reproduction units and closer to the thrith as for impact and attack of solo instruments (cymbals, woods and mo... | |

| Older higher end or newer mid-fi...better bargain? In your case (and almost as a general rule) old hi-end may serve you better, I switched some years ago from an almost new Audiolab 8000 to Naim separetes (half size versions 32.5/xps/180) and improvements were not subtle.Fernando | |

| Pasive Amplification or Monoblocks ???? Stay where you are, you are heading problems IMO. If you want a change I would try an X250.5 or an XA60 in the future.Fernando | |
| Anyone using a Pass 250.5? I have not heard the 250.5 (I own a 250) and I am very happy with it, I would summarize that it is the best SS amp I have had just behind the Gryphon Anthileon by a small margin. I am currently evaluating a Premier 8 with excelent results (better ... | |
| Passive Pre's--Placette RVC or Luminous Axiom I had a Monolithic, First Sound and PLC Sonic Euphoria passives, to my ears the First Sound was thebest sounding, just with the trade-off of having a little sense of dynamic handling compared to the PLC (alsoa good choice)The Monolithic is great f... | |

| Art Audio Diavolo Someone who I respect had Art Audio amps with a pair of Avalon Eclipses. I have never heard her system but she still beleives that it was both a great match and a very musical setup.Fernando | |
