Ok, beating the dead horse AGAIN
I would not advise using tubes that are rolled off in the treble with the SA-100 mk3. I would advise something in SS like the matching Plinius preamp which can be had used for a very good value. Or you could try to get a Krell KRC-HR which would p...

I currently have three VD Nites in my system that I am demoing. I will post a review after more auditioning.All I can say is, you need to hear these VD Nite on your source, preamp, and amp.Also, what equipment are you using in your system? It woul... 
Low end TT vs. Hi end CD

Review: Musical Fidelity A3.2cr Preamplifier
Schuesm, if money were no object, you'd own a better ss preamp than the MF A3.2cr pre. Put it next to an Ayre K-1x, Lamm preamp (forget their solid state models), or even an older Krell KRC HR (ofc all of these preamps retail/ed for some serious b...

Re-terminate a Nordost SPM reference interconnect
Nordost charges an arm and a leg to reterminate their cables. However, they swear that they are the only ones who can do it and not have any signal loss. Heh heh...KF
