| Merlin VSM vs. Gallo Reference 2 or 3 Actually the Stereophile review is of the VSM Millenium. And from what I understand as good as the Millenium was the VSM-MM and VSM-MX are even better.I auditioned the VSM-MM and it knocked my socks off. It will be my next speaker.Cheers | |
| What happened to Monsoon Audio? Hello Harry,Looking at the the ET website, I believe the speaker and sub also come with an amplifier. Although the ET system is not cheap, they do some reasonable for what you get. Just FYI.Cheers | |
| Tube Pre-Amp with Low Gain The deHavilland UltraVerve at 12db is an excellent one to check out. It did wonders for my system.Cheers | |

| Review: deHavilland Electric Amp Mercury Tube preamp Bhatki,The UltraVerve did to my system what the Mercury did for Sheffb. I have no doubt the Mercury is better and look forward to hearing it.

| Review: deHavilland Electric Amp UltraVerve JR Tube preamp Hi Jond,Thanks. There must be something special about a well designed octal based pre. It's great to have a system I enjoy so much for my reference. I considered the Syrah. Even exchanged a few emails with Mick. I would like to hear it someday. It... | |
| AES/Cary DJH Preamp tube change The NOS Sylvania GTA in my deHaviland UltraVerve sounds very good. Good luck.Cheers | |
| Single ended Power amp recommendation Like Larryi I'll recomend an Art Audio amp, the Carissa. I'm running it with my speakers that are 98db efficient and have a 12" woofer with horn mid and tweeter. It's an 845 SET with 16 watts. There is an excellent review by John Potis on 6moons. ... | |

| Meadowlark Ospreys II ? Low Feq. Response? Dr Ken,They were 36" from the back of the speaker to the front wall. I had them as close as 12" at one time. According to the dealer they were well broken in. And I auditioned them for three weeks in my room. Again, in the dealer demo room they we... | |
