Magico Q5
Heard it today in a Magico-Soulution-MIT MAX set up. It is the first Magico that worked for me: dead neutral and open. Does not reach the sub woofer level depths but...what it did, it did awesomely. Could really live with that one. Price in Europe... 
New KEF Release in September
I love classic Sci-Fi :-D !! 
New KEF Release in September
Yep, love my 207/2 as well. I respect many speakers like Avalon, Magico etc. but the Kefs give me REAL music. Would only trade them in for the Kef Muon....well a man can dream ;-) 
MIT Cables for Spectral
Maybe you could consider going MA all the way, also the interconnect. I have heard that MA works best in an all MA set up. Anyway, congrats with your excellent buy! I have the old 360 and still love `em. 
Elrod Statement Silver vs Gold
Bar81,there are dealers who are prepared to send you trial cables. Just check David Elrod's site. Good luck! 
Elrod vs MIT
Well...I promised to get back here and I always keep my promises. The Elrod Statement Gold has been playing here for only 2 weeks now so it isn't really broken in BUT...it is like no other cable I have ever heard. Granted, I do not have much exper... 
Halcro DM68 or Pass XA 200.5?
Peterayer,interesting that you've heard both Spectral (I have the 360s) and Halcro on the Magico. Can you tell me a bit about your listening experience? Both are superfast amps. Thank you. Wim 
Elrod Statement Silver vs Gold
David Elrod always (!!!) answers my mails. Shipment and service are at exemplary. Something else must have happened. Ultra-satisfied Elrod customer. 
Elrod Statement Silver vs Gold
Just got my Statement Gold today. I know in my heart it still has some serious break in to go but ....man....even cold ouf of the box it is special. Cannot detect any harshness at all which is strange for a cable that isn't broken in yet.All the p... 
Spectral 30SS preamp
Agree with Psacanli: total waste of hardware if you do not upgrade power cord! I even tend to think power cords are more important than interlinks or speaker cables. Enjoy, Wim

Puremusic, Glide3...will be back here in about 3 months time to report my findings...now gonna live like a monk to save money haha 
Berkeley direct to Spectral Amp?
I have been using my dCS Elgar plus as a preamp directly into my Spectral 360s for some years. Never had any problems. Cables MIT Oracle 2.1 prolines.A Spectral 30SS (of 30SL) is on my buying list but I really can't say I am unhappy now. 
Elrod vs MIT
Thank you Puremusic and Glide3! I know it is impossible to get a real view on cables if you don't listen to them. Indeed, the problem is that there is no dealer of Elrods in the Netherlands. This query was more to find someone who did try both cab... 
MIT Oracle MA Digital AES/EBU
I hope to receive the AES/EBU version of this excellent cable next week. Since I still have the RCA version on loan, I can compare them using my dCS set up. If someone is interested, I will report my findings between the two cables. 
Revel Salon 2 vrs Kef 207/2
I bought the 207/2. Can only say they ARE big en are able to sound BIG. Have not heard the latest Salon2 but I think Kef is more of an all round speaker but the Salon is maybe more refined, "tighter". Better is not an appropriate word to use here....
