Musicial Fidelity 3cr vs. 3.2cr Preamps
The A3.2 is MUCH a more quiet preamp, not that the A3 was noisy by comparison to anything else available under $2k, yet the 3.2 seemed to have a layer of grundge removed that let a lot more detail shine through in a blacker background. This allowe... 
Von schweikert vr3 or 3.5 which is better
I think the choice comes down to your taste in music. The Original VR3's are killer for electronic, rock and Mahler-like music, the 3.5's are more refined and take well to light jazz and mild classical orchestrations, from what I remember. Even th... 
Vandersteen-like "In-between" speakers
Check out the Von Schweikert VR4GenIIISE's at $6k (btw, every VSA dealer I've talked too is willing to deal, too, so figure less). The website is www.vonschweikert.com. If you can audition these, make shure that you do! New VR4JR's are supposeldy ... 
SACD 2 channel vs Redbook 2 Channel
Man, I can't quit laughing at this entire thread, especially looking back on the nature of the original inquiry! I like to stir up poop as much as anyone but you guys have really let Ritteri drag himself through the mud and toss himself in the gut...

1) This is YOUR opinion, which matters to such an insignificant few, and is a poor argument. Just because YOU don't like something doesn't mean that you are right and everyone else is wrong! Stating your personal preference as a universal maxim, h...

Guys, let's just leave poor Ritteri alone....There's nothing we can do to help this one.

Ritteri, I'll do no such things that you ask. There is a popular saying that aetheists like to throw around in the heat of a philosophical battle, namely that "the burden of proof lies in the believer." Same applies here, it's actually a well esta... 
SACD 2 channel vs Redbook 2 Channel
Ritteri, before I start, know that I'm not disrespecting you, the person outside of this discussion at all, it's just your highly flawed and what could be seen as deliberately misleading "arguments" that I'm having problems with in your posts, not... 
SACD 2 channel vs Redbook 2 Channel
"Sorry, but I have yet to hear ANY SACD player put out a better musical signal than a competently built "redbook" player"So, you just admitted that you have VERY little experience to SACD. It's common for the unlearned to proclaim absolute knowled...

Oh no, someone pulled the "science" card! Science would also be quick to tell us that we can't hear the difference between cables, would it not? It would tell us that all amps that measure the same sound the same, and all amps that measure poorly ... 
Best Digital Amps
Nealhood, the PSA amp stock sounded better to the Bel Canto and Spectron amps I've had in my system. No $1000 pc, no fancy caps, no smoke and mirrors, just clearly superior sound reproduction in my system. Try it before you trash talk it.... 
Mods for a PS Audio HCA-2?
F1a, what preamp are you using? Have you tried inverting phase at the speaker wires yet? Might be amazed at what happens.... 
Where to buy tweeter for Von Schweikerts?
Thanks Drrasta! I tried contacting VSA by email and was blown off 3x now! Would anyone happen to have a phone number to get ahold of Mr. VonS dirrectly at work? Thanks!
