| First Watt SIT 1 for Merlin VSM MM Don't think so. | |
| 845 Tube integrated amps Mastersound Compact based on the Due Venti i have owned, would be my first choice. | |
| Anyone listen to Zu Audio's Definition Mk3? If someone wants a great Zu amp, check out the Mastersound Due Venti on the 'gon right now. Gorgeous sound (and looks) with Siemens EL34s in particular. No better cheap amp I've heard! | |
| Best Rock Album in 2012 How is Grizzly Bear? Have it and the Sons album on order. | |
| Magico S5 review Ebm- your statement is incorrect. If you hear Def4s, please let me know your opinion. For 12k they compete very favorably to the S5s. The Radian supertweet has really taken them quite a step up and the dynamics- most importantly micro dynamics is ... | |
| Magico S5 review Charles1dad- Magico is my favorite speaker outside of Zu historically. I chose Def2s over demo pair of V3s even albeit at much different pricing points.I think for 30-35k, Magico M5s would be my choice IF they could be driven by a 100 watt tube am... | |
| Magico S5 review I think Kef Blades vs S5s would be an awesome demo. Sign me up in LA if possible. I heard both at THE Show and intrigued enough to hear a better demo.I was at Scott Walker Audio yesterday for Magico day and Scott's a nice guy. | |
| Set amps ? what was magical, albeit not tubes, was Rowland with 2.5s. A simple Concentra was sublime on themof course, ARC is what they are designed with. | |
| Zu Definition owners who stepped up to the Def 4 ask your question on the Zu Def4 thread. you aren't special :) | |
| Anyone listen to Zu Audio's Definition Mk3? There should be a bit different dispersion pattern between Druid and Superfly I would guess since the height and tweeter placement are quite different. | |
| Devore Nines and Daedalus Athena comparison? Sounded that way in Newport as well. Hole in lower mids. | |
| Speaker cable suggestion for Pass Labs XA30.5 Kzhtoo- I find the A23s not super detail oriented and therefore found they work well with SS. I also used them to great effect with McIntosh. They seem very natural- perhaps could be that they are a blend of copper/silver as I recall. I certainly ... | |
| Speaker cable suggestion for Pass Labs XA30.5 You can buy A23 cables from Matt @ PitchPerfect Audio.They worked extremely well with a FirstWatt amplifier I had fyi. | |

| Possible move from Hovland amps? How big is your room? With Def4s, my preference is for P/P amplifiers over SETs, but I have a rather large room.I also really enjoyed my Mcintosh gear, which probably sound more in the vicinity of your Hovland SS amp.I'd personally try a tube amp ... |
