Anything as " fast" as SPECTRAL gear?
ZD, I appreciated a post you made about I/C's or speaker cables and mentioned that if one can't hear a difference they shouldn't claim there IS no difference - only state "they" don't hear a difference. Correct polarity and absolute phase are the ... 
Anything as " fast" as SPECTRAL gear?
ZD, it's the very fact it's a 50/50 split that it is essential to have a polarity switch on the preamp. Don't forget the engineer is operating with / and listening to the system he's using and all may sound fine - in that set up. 
Anything as " fast" as SPECTRAL gear?

Anything as " fast" as SPECTRAL gear?

Rockport Altair matching amplifier?
This is not to say I don't have very high regard for Rockport.... 
Rockport Altair matching amplifier?
Soix. Rockport make a big deal of using a certain "copycat" company's internal wiring; but it nowhere near the best available. Gotta ask "what does ultimate quality have to do with it?" And then ask "in addition to that?" Hmm. 
Equitech with digital only?
Thanks all. Axle why would it apply more to analog than digital?
