Bi-wire implementation of Luxman 590AXii and Luxman M10X
You could sell your integrated and buy a nice tube pre and a some cash left 😜  
Will a New Amp Sound Better Than My ML333?
You could try Van Alstine amps, are said to be very good and reliable.  
Graham LS5/9 vs Harbeth M30.2 and SHL5 Plus
I prefer the Graham 5/9, I heard the 30.1 at a dealer thinking it would be my forever speaker, but really did not like them, felt they were projecting the sound too much in upper midband, I listen in near field position. Took a chance on the 5/9 ... 
Anything close to Hegel H360 but smaller/lighter?
Belles Aria      Belles also just came out with a Signature model of this amp.  
Accuphase E380
Lot of high-end shops in Bangkok, should not be a problem finding something to taste.  
Belles Aria upgrade over VT01, sa100, sa030?
I have the SA30, beautiful sounding amp.  
Preamps can color sound considerably. Surprising?
Even a cheap tube pre can do wonders for a system, a very good solid state pre often is very expensive. Off course a pre “color” the sound, but with tube rolling you often can get the sound you like, should you want to change the sound.      
Atma-Sphere Class D… Amazing
Unfortunately they are a bit too expensive for me, will there be a cheaper stereo version ?  
Atma-Sphere Class D… Amazing
Do you guys know what the input gain is on these amps ?  
tube pre & ss amp integrated
I know it doesn’t have tubes, but you could take a look at the Swedish Moonriver intergraded amp, gets very good reviews  
Supratek Owners Thread
When I asked Mick that question, he replied a little bit more of everything 😜 The chrome looks very nice especially in the evening when other lights in the room reflects of the 2 big domes, but I think there will be many that think it is too much...

Would be interesting if you will hear any improvement with a new umbilical.

AVA Vision Set 400 v Belles SA-100
Feel like I have moved the discussion on to Supratek, which was not my intention, please let us go back to AVA and Belles. Be interesting how the new 400 will look.
