Amp for new Meadowlark Krestel 2's ?
HI!You might also look into the Sound Quest SQ-88 integrated tube amp. The SQ-88 is well built, good looking, 55 watts, and comes with remote volume control. I use mine with Von Schweikert VR-4jr speakers with great success. Works great with the K... 
Music Hall cd-25 or Rega planet 2000
Hi!Take a look at this thread where I talk about the players I had last year: http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?ddgtl&1114517770&read&3&4&5I feel the Music Hall and Planet 2000 are great players. But I feel the Arcam CD73...

Athena ASF-2: are these speakers for real???
Hi Ka7Niq!I went to the Sound and Vision web site and found the article I believe you are referring to here: http://www.soundandvisionmag.com/article.asp?section_id=1&article_id=511&page_number=1Nowhere does the article imply that the Athe... 
VR-4JR or USHER 6371

Athena ASF-2: are these speakers for real???
Hi!After talking with my friend about his Athenas, he reminded me that I should have said something about the 2nd set of speakers he purchased. He wanted me to pass on this information to you. Our past listening tests confirmed his findings. Pleas... 
m20s and what?
HI!I don't know about amplification but I'll put my two cents in on a CD player. The Music Hall CD25 and Arcam CD-73T are both excellent players and great recommendations. I have owned both. Another overachiever is the Cambridge Audio Azur 640C, w... 
Athena ASF-2: are these speakers for real???
HI!In that price range ... I'd say they are for real. I also like the PSB Image 4T and 5T in your price range. Never heard them A-B with the Athenas though. Give them a listen if you can. (By the way, that’s very good equipment you would be mating... 
Consonance Droplet....anyone heard it at home yet?
Hi!I have not heard it at home but … I have owned the AH! Njoe Tjoeb 4000, currently own the Consonance CD-120, and I have listened to the Droplet. I consider the Consonance CD-120 to be far superior to the AH! Njoe Tjoeb 4000. But the Droplet is ...
