Well......... I don't know? it looks like a split decision on the Dared. So should I or shouldn't I. I think it would be something I would defintely demo before laying down the cash.Do they offer a money back guarantee? And do they have a repair f... 
any opinions about the bat vk d5 cd player ?
Another CD player in that class ( though soild sate ) would be Wadia 301 or 302 if you can find one. I think tihs one does it better than both of the fore mentioned.

Bignerd100,Looks like we have our own thread going here. Actaully I contacted the seller out of curiousity. He is actaully out of the UK and told me that the US would frown on him selling to the US under-cutting the market here.But he CLAIMS to be... 
I love my Vandersteen's but . . . . . . . .
Stumpie,Oops! My mistake I confused the watts with the first post. But I must agree with Eagleman6722, there must be a marriage between the amp and the speakers. I have had Quicksilver M-60's ( 60 watts per channel ) matched with the Vandersteen 3...

Well actaully..... Jolida is a Chinese company. But after living there for some time I can assure you the eventually ( even in China ) there will be a law suite agianst the fake company.

Stumpie,40 watts is 40 watts. That's all I have to say.

I cannot beleive no one has aksed the question of the position of those Vandies. They need to be at least ( recomended by Vandersteen ) a foot off the wall. I have had them 3 feet from the wall. Ever noticed how far most audio delaers place their ...

Yes it does look really cool! I wonder how they get away with the Jolida name? 
CD player not reading
Got it apart and did everything I could. The lense is still not reading, and also there was a slight smell of a burnt circut board. So I would say that it is over the the HK CD player. But at least I know what the inside of a CD player looks like ...

6C33-B vs everything else.

EL-34: JJ Tesla or Electro-Harmonix?
From my experiences the JJ Tesla's had the most bass and the sweetest midrange. ( of current tube productions ) The Svets lacked in bass, and I thought the Electro-Harmonix were just plain blah. But I suppose it depends on the associated equipment. 
Looking for warmth
WoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooW! My ears are bleeding just reading about that setup! A tube pre might work as well. There are a few that can usaully be had for around $600-$700. Or some warmer IC's between the source and the pre would help. If...
