| Questionable service at Soundsmith @inna , you must be a miserable human being and are to be pitied. YOU are the one who should be seeking professional help. What a horrible and hateful thing to say. You should be ashamed. | |
| Questionable service at Soundsmith You got what you deserved waiting that long to follow up and exaggerating about the length of time destroys your credibility. Peter is dripping with class and you sir, have none. | |

| Suggestions for Cables between Playback Designs MPS-5 and Allnic L-3000 Mk 2 Preamp @pops Again, thanks for your kindness and comments. I've decided on a comparison of the Acoustic Zen Absolute Silver XLR and High Fidelity Cables CT-1U Ultimate Series for the single ended option. We shall see what we shall see, or "hear" rather. | |
| Suggestions for Cables between Playback Designs MPS-5 and Allnic L-3000 Mk 2 Preamp @pops I really appreciate you taking the time to comment, and you're 100% right. I was hoping for a shortcut. :-) | |
| What's a contender to an Audio Reference 5 SE? @melbguy1 You have an interesting perspective. But I was never suggesting a $20k preamp. I was asking for suggestions comparable to an ARC Ref 5SE which is $13k new. So with the Plinius total investment would be in the $33k-$35k range for amp a... | |
