| PS Audio BHK 300 mono VS Modwright KWA 150SE mono VS D'agostino Classic stereo Hi guys since i find VAC preamps too expensive compared to other very well know brands, i was thinking of the Nagra Classic preamp to go with the d'Agostino Classic amp.The Nagra is $17K here in Europe compared to the $25K VAC.What do you guys th... | |
| Integrated amp upgrade Thanks guys, the thing is that i have to determine if i do a little amp upgrade now or wait until i get the budget to build my ambitious high end system with my Thiels.End of february i should get a home autidion of a full Ypsilon system. | |
| Integrated amp upgrade gdhal i was actually looking at the M6-500i but can't find one under $3K used. | |
| Integrated amp upgrade paraneer there is nothing wrong with my Classe except that i might add a pair of Thiel CS 7.2s to my Thiel collection.CS 7.2s are difficult loads for modest int amps like my Classe.mgreen27 yes my Hegel has a volume control, it might be a good ide... | |
| Integrated amp upgrade Well it's not going to be possible to audition gear on the used market.My source is a Hegel HD12 streaming music from Qobuz via USB. | |
| Thiel Owners jafant i asked Kevin Hayes from VAC if i could visit his facility in Sarasota, i just hope i get the time to do so, otherwise i'll see him at the Munich show this year.pops yes i am very curious about Nagra driving Thiels, i'm sure 2 Classic Amps ... | |

| VTL TL7.5 series lll VS VAC Master Line Stage VS AR Ref 6 VS Nagra Classic Preamp 4425 i got a mail response from Hervé, it seems that he doesn't really like people using his NHB-18NS with other brand amps...If i choose his NHB-18 NS he recommends purchasing the corresponding NHB-108 stereo amp.He says this amp can drive pretty... | |
| Thiel Owners Dave i use an Audioquest USB cable.I stream directly from Qobuz or use Jriver for the high res files that i buy from Qobuz. | |
| Thiel Owners Dave i also bought mine 1 year old used.I have been told it is as good as the HD25 so not worth spending more.Hegel is really a surprising brand.Did you get a Tidal yearly membership ?Let me know when you start using Tidal how it goes. | |
| VTL TL7.5 series lll VS VAC Master Line Stage VS AR Ref 6 VS Nagra Classic Preamp 4425 thanks for you suggestion, i am actually considering the Dartzeel NHB-18NS but i was told that the XLR outputs are not at the same level as the single ended ones.Since D'agostino amps only have balanced inputs that's something to take in cons... |
