| Spectron Musician 3 First Impressions? Spectron,Thanks for explaining the pros and cons of the different mono-block configurations. The only thing I wasn't aware of, or didn't remember, was how the internal wiring is done to bridge the amps internally, as opposed of doing this eternall... | |
| Spectron Musician 3 First Impressions? Dob,It'll take some burn-in time before the two Spectron amps can sing together. I first started just burning-in the new one for about a week. Then I just couldn't resist and connected the two in balanced mode. The sound didn't settle in until aft... | |
| Spectron Musician 3 First Impressions? I finally got the second Musisican III SE up and running in balanced mono-block configuration. When I ordered the second one, I was simply expecting a small improvement over using a single amp with my Maggies 3.6. I was wrong, very wrong. I don't ... | |
| TVC preamps: good or bad? I currently have Promitheus Audio Reference C-core TVC and I can confirm that this unit is extremely transparent and extremely quiet. Soundstage definition and resolution is the best I've heard in any system at any price. Each instrument has its o... | |
| Which Super Integrated Amp to drive planars? I had the Krell 300iL driving my Maggies 3.6. I'm know driving the Maggies with a Spectron Musician III Signature Edition and the difference is night and day. There is nothing like a powerful and refined amp to drive speakers with low sensitivitie... | |
| High End Isolation - HRS, SRA, Active platforms I've used an HRS platform, Stillpoints cones, Finite Elemente Ceraballs and Cerapucs, and Equarack footers. The only isolation devices sitting under all my equipment are the Equarack footers and the HRS platform (AS turntable only).IMO, an isolati... | |

| Spectron Musician 3 First Impressions? Guidocorona,My Musician III SE took about 200 hrs to break in. The overall sound character (or lack of character) is apparent from day one. The sound will be more detailed, more articulate and more balanced as the burning in continues.Regards,iSan... | |
| Spectron Musician 3 First Impressions? I've got mine for about 3 months now. I liked what it does in my system so much that I have a second one coming up in a few weeks. They'll be set in mono-block configuration to drive my Maggies 3.6. This is the most transparent audio gear that I h... | |
| Considering going Vinyl--Please talk me out of it If you want less hassle, get a boom-box. Extremely convenient. All you need in a stereo system in one box. I've heard that they even come with a remote. Some of them have detachable speakers, so you can expand the soundstage all you want at any ti... | |
| Isolation devices and CDPs I almost forgot about the last part of Gsm18439 question: And how/why do they work?Some years ago, I attended a lecture given by a chemical engineer. The lecture was given to prospective chemical engineering students and it was about the different... | |
| Isolation devices and CDPs Tboooe, I own a set of three of the original Ceraball, and another set of three of the Cerapuc. I'm using the multi-mount footer without the bearing at the moment. I have a preamp on order. After I get it, I'll get a new multi-mount footer with th... | |

| Isolation devices and CDPs I just got two sets of Equa footers. One for my Spectron Musician SE and another one for my Krell 280cd and Benchmark DAC. The amount of clarity these devices brought to the sound is quite astonishing! For the last two years, I've used Stillpoints... | |
| What is best amp for Maggie 3.6R The Spectron Musician III SE is the way to go. That's what I have driving the Maggies 3.6. The Spectron will bring lots of detail and control at both extremes of the frequency range. It produces a very refined sound, reminiscent of much more expen... |
