Warm and Detailed S.S. Amp?
If you must have a SS amp, McCormack makes some of the best that I have heard. Very powerful with a nice touch of bloom (just a touch, mind you) in the midrange.Oz 
Analog experiment
I agree with Dan. Why not add another format to your system. I listen to digital and vinyl and enjoy both. More often it is records I turn to, but that's not to say there aren't numerous seedees that I love as well. If you don't spend another penn... 
What speakers are you guys driving your BAT's with
The BAT drives the speakers, not the other way around.......Oz

canary audio cd 100 better than bluenote koala?
>If i can get another 2-3% better resolution/clarity with the Hovlands, I'll feel its worth it.<And just HOW do you think you will determine this 2-3% improvement? Are you serious? 2-3%? Oz

Nottingham Space Deck 294
Well that's nice to hear. I am on my second Spacedeck(taller platter) with Ace-Space arm and I love it. I would really like to hear the 294, this might be the next upgrade.Oz 
What dynamic spkr. did you go to from electrostat?
Chadlinz,Martin Logans sound threadbare and thin compared to maggies. So what's your point? The only things MLs have going for them is their transparency and speed. If you want a real presentation of music, you have to look elsewhere.Oz

So Jaybo, this table has only been out for a very short while. And you have heard it already?Oz 
Trying to extract more from my Vandersteen

What dynamic spkr. did you go to from electrostat?
>but had concerns that the midrange just wouldn't be able to keep up with an electrostat in overall tonal purity.<Electrostats might have "tonal purity", but the midrange is thin and threadbare. I love their see through transparency, but I c... 
Von Schweikert DB99 vs Consonance M15-thoughts?

Upgrading crossover?
For Peter (PBN)I have your SPXs. Is there anything you would recommend to do to the xover that would be an improvement? How about changing to better parts quality? I have no idea what you used, haven't been inside for a peek a boo.Oz 
Acoustic Zen Adagio, How Good Are They?
Lighten up guys. I can find nowhere that he said they WERE made in China. He just asked IF they were made in China. I realize you guys are proud of your speakers, but aren't you being a little hard on someone asking an honest question?Oz

>It IS in a league by it's own, in my educated opinion<"It" being what?????? Avalon? Lipinski? Can you please be a little more vague next time????.......Oz
