| McCormack DNA 0.5 vs. Parasound HCA 2003 I wouldn't say Vandies are bright. What cables are you using? | |
| Shunyata ztron power vs cx cables... Oddeophile,Thanks for the detailed post of your impressions! I may have to find an alternate mean of breaking in my Cobra IC because I have a tube integrated amp and tube CD player but possibly could put in some cheap 6SN7 in my player and run tha... | |

| Conrad Johnson Sonographe sa400 or McCormack DNA-1 I bought the sonograph amp and pre back in 1995/6 to run with my ML Aerius and they were terrible sounding to me, very dark and heavy. Sent them back for Classe CA100 and a CL PV12 which was a fabulous combo. | |
| Best tube rolling options for VAC Ren MkIII preamp Podeschi,I have some Ken Rads, are they all the same? Can you send me some pics to wiggy924@yahoo.com? | |
