Magnepan 20.1

Has anyone heard the Rhea Signature Series?
I have the Rhea Standard version. The stock tubes aren't very good at all. I use Brimars,Telefukens, and Siemans NOS.The difference from stock is night and day. I have not heard the Signature version. Three grand is a lot of money! I'm content on ... 
Emerald Physics: Same as the Quads in the fifties?
I've heard them in two seperate systems. In fact beside Magnepan 3.6's. They couldn't even begin to stack up against the Maggies. Too many claims are made in reference that their superior products ( several out there ) can compete and beat others ... 
Spectron Mk II, is it really that good.

Help narrow my speaker search. $2500-$3500 used.
Ever consider Magnepan 3.6's? I used to run them with a Musician II and they were magical! 
Which Integrated got you off the merry go round?
BATVK300X ..... Not the SE model so, you can still roll tubes! I stopped with the Siemens CCA's late sixties vintage. Superb and reasonable! 
VPI Rim Drive
Mred, The Rim Drive beats the pants off of the belts, hands down. The upgrade is well worth the money. The new Rim Drive replacement belt doesn't sound any better than the original belt (OEM). The difference is that the replacement has silicon as ... 
VPI Rim Drive
Gee ...... I've had mine for over a month and play it daily. It sounds the same today as it did on day one! It took every bit of 10 seconds to replace the old with the new! I'm not feeling or have felt any pain either. Works for me!
