| OK-- I think I get it, now... @tooblue : "Just remember that it was the music that led you to better gear, not the other way around and you will be fine and rewarded" Words well worth keeping in mind! @ghdprentice: "To me, what my system does best is communicate the musi... | |
| OK-- I think I get it, now... @jerryg123: Yessir-- no point in denying it, now ! @rocray: Good one! @bjesien: Excellent suggestion! | |
| OK-- I think I get it, now... @ozzy: Congratulations! Just remember there are some here that will tell you (brow beat) that all amplifiers sound the same. Crazy, ain’t it… Yeah; just like "all DACs sound the same" ! @russ69: "Just be sure to enjoy the ride." You mean... | |
| Acoustic Zen Matrix Reference II vs. Absolute Copper IC's @dalims4 : Yes-- that's how the A. Coppers sounded to me, when paired with my Wells Integrated However, the Hegel has greater high end extension and is neutral, compared to the overtly warm Wells. I may still be disappointed by the A.

| RCA interconnect recommendation @decooney: I will try the Coppers by themselves, without the Lokius and with the Lokius in conjunction with the Silvers, as you've suggested. @audphile1: Well, no, as I use the Lokius with most CDs, now. It makes sense to me to demo the cable i... | |

| Best Integrated that you've heard under $5k FYI, there's a sealed box Hegel 390 under "New Today" for $4150.00 | |
| Magico A5 or KEF blade 2? @riley804: "that’s funny." @mountainsong: "lol" I guess there's an "inside joke", here but it's not clear to me what it might be. I've had my Silverlines for 15 years and have no complaints, especially now that I've finally been able... | |
