Plinius 8150i vs. Plinius 8200 mk. 2?
Tim, be grateful that the "upgrade bug" hasn't bitten you yet, because when it does,it becomes a compulsive and addictive thing.I know, because I've had "upgrade-itis" for about a year now. Only recently have the symptoms begun to start to wear of... 
I've a confession to make don't tell my wife
I second Warren. I just put the Audiopoints under my Meadowlarks and the transformation was amazing. Previously I had the standard factory points, then came some aluminum tiptoes( which improved things quite a lot ) but then the Audiopoints, and "... 
neutrality vs. realism
Whiskey,bourbon. I don't drink anymore so who cares? Besides, it's spelled Royal, not Royale. And who said I can't tell what's reality ? As they said in the Old West, Bob, " Here's lookin' at ya "...I'm sorry you missed the point of my story,you l... 
Will the Plinius 8200 Mk1 fit my needs?
On the contrary, I had the Plinius 8200 and it isn't bright.If the Plinius sounds bright, then look elsewhere in the chain. I would search the threads under Dynaudio and see what amps some of the owners are/were using. I just sold my Plinius 8200 ... 
neutrality vs. realism

advice on brightness
I can only comment on the ARC integrated which is what I have in my second system. This may or may not help with the brightness, but a Shunyata Sidewinder Gold power cord is a perfect synergistic match for the Complete and it shouldn't break the b... 
Plinius 8200P MkII = great
Aren't you using Van Alstine Transcendence 7 preamp ? I'm curious if you have had some experience with any of the Plinius integrateds, as compared to your Van Alstine/Plinius combo. I currently have a Plinius 8200 MkI integrated and was considerin... 
Please help I have a strange grounding problem
Well, I thought I isolated the problem when I started searching the threads under "isolation transformer" and I found a post about coaxial cable causing ground loop hums. I didn't even have my cable hooked up to the T.V., so just for kicks I unscr... 
Please help I have a strange grounding problem
Well, I've isolated the humming problem to the FIM outlet. Apparently I didn't install it right. I am going to get an electrician in next week to put in dedicated outlets. I'm tired of sharing electricity with the rest of my house and neighborhood...
