Magico A3 replacement @dpm2340 Verity would definitely be a great choice if you are looking for musicality. A friend of mine has the Verity Otello driven by Ypsilon Phaethon. | |
Experiences With Costly Balanced XLR Interconnects Above $3,000 My Cardas Clear Beyond XLR smoked Clarus Crimson XLR in a direct shootout yesterday. The difference was huge. | |
Higher-End Class A/B vs. Class A Integrateds My ex Gryphon Diablo 300 class A/B was outperformed by my present Vitus SIA-025 Mk2 class A and lately my Vitus was also outperformed by a Jadis DA88S KT120 tube class A integrated. The Jadis is about the same price as the Diablo 300. This is my... | |
Anybody heard the Jadis DA 88 Signature? I have recently demoed the MK2 version of the DA88S optimised for KT120s in my system and I can assure you it easily outperformed my Vitus SIA-025 MK2 on my Thiel CS 3.7 speakers. | |
Thiel Owners Like @dickieboy this is also my experience i have found that 60w Jadis class A PP tube did sound much better than 300w class A/B Gryphon SS on my CS 3.7s I'm actually considering selling my Vitus amp for pure tube Jadis goodness. | |
Thiel Owners @silvanik My floor is a wooden floor and my system sits on a thick acoustic carpet. I have tried the Gaia carpet discs and it didn'd do it for me, sound was very thin. | |
Attention Thiel CS3.7 owners I'm most likely the only one on this forum who has demoed up to 53k worth of SS amps on Thiel CS 3.7s. None of them are able to outperform a VAC Master preamp paired with Jadis Monoblocks on this particular Thiel model. All demoes are done at my... | |
Anybody using tube amps to drive Thiel CS 3.7's ? Well guys, the Jadis DA88S with 8 KT120s in PP class A beat my Vitus SIA-025 Mk2 on my CS 3.7s. Jadis sounds like real live music with lots of meat on the bone. Jadis Monos would be fantastic on Thiel speakers. | |
Thiel Owners @duramax747 Absolutely not you can listen as loud as you want with the Jadis. I don’t listen at low volume but i admit i don’t listen to hard rock or any techno music. The Jadis integrated betters the Vitus in just about every departement and ha... | |
Thiel Owners Ok guys my Vitus SIA-025 Mk2 was outperformed by a Jadis DA88S with KT120 tubes in a direct shootout in my system a week ago. Thiels seem to like Jadis sound better and it is cheaper than Vitus great findings. | |
Gryphon Diablo 300 vs Vitus RI-101 I have to agree with @supermerio, i owned the Diablo 300 for a year and the Vitus SIA-025 Mk2 for more than a year and recently demoed a Jadis DA88S equiped with 8 KT120s. The Jadis easily outperformed both the Gryphon and the Vitus in my system.... | |
Thiel Owners Hi guys, this sunday i'll be demoing a Jadis DA88S integrated with 8 KT88 tubes 60w class A on my CS3.7s. First time i try a tube amp on my Thiels, this is going to be fun. | |
Thiel Owners @silvanik I've had them on my 3.7s but didn't like the sound at all. It sucked the life out of my Thiels therefore i sold the Gaie feet and put back the original feet. | |
LAMM M1.2 - Feedback - Advice - Please - anyone heard these? That's right @mitch2 i want more tube goodness in my system. I don't know if a tube pre paired with a SS amps would be to my liking. I have to admit that i'm pretty tired and bored of the non musicality of most SS. In a week i'm demoing one las... | |
LAMM M1.2 - Feedback - Advice - Please - anyone heard these? Hi guys, do you think pairing Lamm M1.2s with a VAC Master linestage would sound great on my Thiel CS 3.7s or are there any better amps today for my pretty difficult speakers ? I plan on bying used therfore Vitus SM-103 monos could also be consid... |
